There's no such Debian release.  I presume you mean Ubuntu Hardy.

Automatic help mode:

http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Apackages.ubuntu.com+python.h 
indicates it is available in the python2.5-dev package.

Human help mode:

Install the package called python-dev.  You can use apt-file to search the 
repository for files; see 
http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-find-missing-packages-with-apt-file.

Looks like you probably need to apt-get install python-dbus.  That's just 
a guess, though.
