Needed to rename the: koi.desktop file to: local.KoiDbusInterface.desktop at install time in accordance with DBus service integration and its interfaces - Added parameter: DBusActivatable=true; added Implements=* line to specify what DBus interfaces/methods Koi provides, in the Koi.DESKTOP file. This was very tricky to get it without errors . . . !
