Scribes 0.3 error

I've compiled myself Scribes 0.3 using this modified PKGBUILD:

# Contributor: neodreams <yanbrodeur>

pkgname=scribes
pkgver=0.3
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A simple PyGTK+ text editor"
url="http://scribes.sourceforge.net"
license="GPL"
depends=('dbus-python' 'gnome-python-desktop' 'gnome-python-extras' 'gtksourcevi
ew' 'yelp')
makedepends=()
source=(http://neodreams.universfantastiques.org/src/${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.bz
2)
md5sums=('2abe30a606fcb6aa310c7322df8e5ab7')

build() {
   cd ${startdir}/src/${pkgname}-${pkgver}
   ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome --disable-scrollkeeper
   make || return 1
   make DESTDIR=${startdir}/pkg install
}

Everything goes fine, but when I try to run Scribes I get following msg:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/gnome/bin/scribes", line 39, in ?
    main(argv[1:])

dbus_bindings.DBusException: Unable to determine the address of the message bus (try 'man dbus-launch' and 'man dbus-daemon' for help)

I've searched Google but nothing found there Anybody can help?
