+ \section2 D-Bus
+
+ Mac OS X does not ship with a D-Bus daemon, because the operating system has
+ its own IPC mechanisms; therefore Qt binary packages don't usually include
+ the \l{Qt D-Bus} module. However you can install \c dbus via Homebrew, Fink or
+ MacPorts; then when you build Qt it will be detected, and the Qt D-Bus module
+ will be built.
