Comment (by ryandesign at macports.org):

 If I install the dbus-glib port first then the problem goes away.

 Or if I add the `--disable-dbus` option to pidgin's `configure.args` the
 problem goes away.

 I don't know which of those is the correct solution. But I'm leaning
 towards the first, given:

  1. The port does not currently build if dbus-glib is not installed.
 Therefore anyone who has the port installed must already have dbus-glib
 installed.
  2. The post-activate phase calls `dbus-uuidgen` which is provided by the
 dbus port.

 So I added dependencies on dbus and dbus-glib and increased the port
 revision (so everyone who already has the port gets those dependencies
 recorded correctly) in r38377. I'm leaving this open and assigned to the
 maintainer of pidgin to ensure that this was the correct decision. Simon,
 please close as fixed if you think this is the right fix.
