There is another problem:
=====
debian-gta01:~# apt-get install zhone-illume-glue
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  zhone-illume-glue: Depends: libecore-0.9.9.050a (>= 0.9.9.050+svn20090202) but it is not installable
                     Depends: libecore-x0 (>= 0.9.9.042) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
debian-gta01:~#
=====

The above means that Zhone was not built with the new E17 libraries,
probably for the very same reason I explained at:

  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-fso-maint/2009-May/001200.html

I do not remember where (and if) I can find the files uploaded to NEW:
since the python-edbus Git repository does not use pristine-tar, there
is no way to regenerate the very same .orig.tar.gz uplaoded to NEW.

FYI, I built python-edbus from the Git repository and then rebuilt Zhone
on a clean chroot with the new python-edbus package manually installed:
everything seems to work fine on my GTA01, at least I can make a call a
receive an SMS.

If I can get the python-edbus .orig.tar.gz uploaded to NEW, I will be
glad to rebuilt everything and upload it to the pkg-fso repository.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
