Description Mattia Verga 2011-09-25 13:39:40 UTC 
Description of problem:
After today updates my system has become unusable: when I log in to KDE I get the error:

Cannot connect to ConsolKit session: unable to open session: failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: no such file or directory

In the logs I get this error for every program that tries to connect to dbus.
This is the list of updates that broke my system:

Comment 1 Mattia Verga 2011-09-25 14:05:04 UTC 
I found that this is caused by systemd upgrade.

After downgrading systemd, systemd-units and systemd-sysv to 35-1 now dbus is working again.
Comment 2 Michal Schmidt 2011-09-25 14:21:10 UTC 
Yes. This is already fixed in systemd-36-3.fc16.
