Comment 1 Martin Whitaker 2019-01-29 23:03:39 CET 
This is an authentication problem. Running mcc from the terminal gives

[live@localhost ~]$ mcc
Too late to run INIT block at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm line 257.

(mcc:3489): dbind-WARNING **: 21:56:16.182: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-T9HHaHEKBy: Connection refused

==== AUTHENTICATION FAILED ====

Checking the environment, DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is not defined, and checking what's running shows

[live@localhost ~]$ ps x | grep dbus
 3443 ?        S      0:00 dbus-launch --autolaunch=6873c93bab2345c79017ef3bf2716859 --binary-syntax --close-stderr
 3444 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --syslog-only --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session

Going back to a 6.1 Live ISO, I find

[live@localhost ~]$ env | grep dbus
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-gyAewFS0V6,guid=0bd8fb5e0207759b5120c3ae5c50c6cb
[live@localhost ~]$ ps x | grep dbus
 3417 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session --sh-syntax
 3418 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
 3531 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --config-file=/usr/share/defaults/at-spi2/accessibility.conf --nofork --print-address 3

I suspect it's the dbus-launch that's at fault, but I don't know what's calling that.

Comment 2 Martin Whitaker 2019-01-30 19:06:03 CET 
Turns out this is another case of the new redhat/brp-mangle-shebangs RPM helper quietly breaking things. Some of the scripts in /etc/X11/xinit.d did not have shebangs, so the helper removed the execute bits from the file permissions, thus stopping them from being executed by /etc/X11/Xsession.
