dbus: it's deprecated, don't worry about it

gpmi: scripting capability; no official debian package available, so you 
have to skip it in debian builds

openscad and dxf exports are both unstable (in the sense that they don't 
produce usable exports, ever), it's best not to build them.

Btw, I consider release 1.2.4 stable.

For the next 1.5 months, svn trunk will be the unstable.

Cool, thanks! If the tests ran succesfully, the most important export 
plugins and the most critical core infrastructure should work properly. 
It's mostly the GUI that we don't auto-test yet.
