Description of problem: When running dbus/message on a per-session basis rather than from the system init scripts, system-config-printer fails miserably--refuses to run. A tool to configure system printers shouldn't require dbus/messagebus to be running, let alone require it to be running from the init scripts. There are valid reasons for not wanting dbus/messagebus to be running at all, let alone persistent across login sessions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-printer-1.0.7-13mdv2009.0 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install a new Mandriva 2009.0 system. 2.Configure dbus/messagebus to _NOT_ run from the init scripts, so it runs from the script in xinit.d. 3.Try to run system-config-printer. Actual results: A Python stack trace like this: /usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py:203: GtkWarning: GtkSp inButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated self.xml = gtk.glade.XML(xml, domain = domain) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 5343, i n <module> main(configure_printer, change_ppd) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 5311, i n main mainwindow = GUI(configure_printer, change_ppd) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 571, in __init__ self.monitor = monitor.Monitor (self, monitor_jobs=False) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/monitor.py", line 151, in __init__ bus = dbus.SystemBus () File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/_dbus.py", line 202, in __new__ private=private) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/_dbus.py", line 108, in __new__ bus = BusConnection.__new__(subclass, bus_type, mainloop=mainloop) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 125, in __new__ bus = cls._new_for_bus(address_or_type, mainloop=mainloop) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed t o connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Expected results: Ideally, the utility should not require connection to Dbus. At the least, the utility should function with the session Dbus.
