Description Frederik Himpe 2011-12-29 19:57:00 CET

In the install.log of a cauldron installation, I find this:

Failed to open connection to "system" message bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
netprofile-0.28-3.mga1.noarch

netprofile's %post script calls /usr/sbin/netprofile which calls dbus-send. This triggers this error during cauldron installation, because dbus is not running. Either it should check first whether dbus is running before calling dbus-send, or the error message should be silenced by adding 2>/dev/null in the dbus-send call.

Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.
As there is no maintainer for this package I added the committers in CC.

(Please set the status to 'assigned' if you are working on it)

CC: (none) => thomas

Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2012-03-19 12:57:32 CET

We still don't have a maintainer for this package

Is the bug still valid?

@ Frederik

Is the bug still valid for Mga2b2?

Comment 4 Frederik Himpe 2012-04-05 15:09:57 CEST

I'm not going to do a complete mageia installation to test whether this is still valid. But as netprofile did not have any commit in 13 months, according to http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/netprofile/, it's extremely unlikely this warning is gone now.

That makes sense :)

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

We have now Cauldron. 

Can anyone report if the report is still valid ?

Thanks.

netprofile            #########################################################################################################
Failed to open connection to "system" message bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
Will you add checking if there is no /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket, then don't start %post?

Assigning to Mageia Tools maintainer group. If it happens not to be valid anymore, just close it, thanks!
