I got this error too, but I do not know much about DBus and didn't have
the time to look into it yet. my workaround was:

kill gwibber and gwibber service
purge debian gwibber package
go to gwibber working copy
python setup.py bdist
su -c 'python setup.py install --install-layout=deb'

of course this will install files that apt/dpkg do not know about.

regards

  According to the information on INSTALL file, I have met all
  dependencies. Also, gwibber-service was running in the background.

  Python version I have installed is 2.6.6.
