Barry, awesome, exciting stuff!

I just tried upgrading to the package in your PPA, and got this error:

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python-dbus-common_0.84.0-2ubuntu1~ppa3_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus/dbus-python.h', which is also in package python-dbus 0.84.0-2build1
Preparing to replace python-dbus 0.84.0-2build1 (using .../python-dbus_0.84.0-2ubuntu1~ppa3_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement python-dbus ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/python-dbus-common_0.84.0-2ubuntu1~ppa3_amd64.deb

Doing a `sudo apt-get install -f` afterward fixed it though. Looks like the problem is it's trying to install python-dbus-common before upgrading the old python-dbus, which I think this would fix:

Package: python-dbus-common
Conflicts: python-dbus (<< ${source:Version})

Thanks!
