I tried
dbus-scripts_2.0_armel.deb
and
dbus-scripts_1.0+maemo-5_armel.deb
from here:
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d.../dbus-scripts/
but both times my N900 says "Not compatible".
According to install-log there is some problem with
"package must have section user/FOO" ->?

I have version 21.2011.38-1 on my N900.

Any help on this?
Is there some other version for dbus-scripts?
I'd like to use it together with jschan tethering scripts

Incompatible package, Section: user/FOO
Best wishes.

Installed the 2.0 package as root with dpkg.
That worked.
But now I get "bnep0 does not exist" when starting the
script from jschan.

But I will check this in the thread
tethering n900 to google nexus 7

The /dev/bnep0 device file is dynamically allocated/created, so will only exist when you have a Bluetooth network connection established (not necessarily configured). Make sure the appropriate kernel modules are loaded first too, or it won't get created at all. Bluetooth tethering to android is a real PITA... the only thing (on android) I found that works for the N900 providing network services to android (on my TouchPad) is nctether, and it is flakey as hell (only works after a reboot, requires a reboot to kill, etc).
On the N900 side, it wasn't too bad, once I realized the android software was the problem.

Now if you're going the other way, android providing network to the N900, that's a whole different ball game (tons of Bluetooth tethering host software on android). I've never tried it.
