'Twas brillig, and David W. Hodgins at 26/03/13 00:15 did gyre and gimble:
+> 
+> Is there any way to get a list of all packages that use dbus-send,
+> in the installation scriptlets?
+> 
+> As per https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9534, which is for
+> the rtkit package, it uses dbus-send in it's postinstall scriptlet,
+> which doesn't work during upgrade, blocking urpmi until the
+> dbus-send is manually killed.
+> 
+> A list of packages using dbus-send in the scriptlets would help
+> ensuring upgrading with those packages is tested.
+
+Using my handy git clone of all packages:
+
+[colin at jimmy cauldron-packages (master)]$ grep --include=*.spec -r dbus-send
+dbus/current/SPECS/dbus.spec:%{_bindir}/dbus-send
+rtkit/current/SPECS/rtkit.spec:dbus-send --system --type=method_call
+--dest=org.freedesktop.DBus / org.freedesktop.DBus.ReloadConfig
+>/dev/null 2>&1 || :
+
+
+So basically, only rtkit. At least directly at any rate... there could
+be other things that use scripts etc.
