Do you have python2-dbus installed? How about it's optional dep dbus-glib?

I can confirm this bug. There are two temporary solutions:

- downgrade to 2.7.0-1
- (recommended) use 2.8.0-1, but also install the python2-dbus package as a dependency. This fixes the problem.

-I had no python2-dbus installed but the optional dep dbus-glib
-also for me the installation of python2-dbus was solving the problem
