Ticket #29495 (closed defect: worksforme)

Opened 2 years ago

Last modified 2 years ago

DBus doesn't launch, Digikam and other apps hang

Reported by: macports.mexon@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: Cc: mcalhoun@…
Port: dbus

Description

During installation, I noticed two messages: # launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist # 'sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Preferences/KDE'

I did both of these. launchctl fails like this:

$ launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist nothing found to load

This is apparently a symptom of having "<key>Disabled</key>" in org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist. To fix that, I found a "-w" flag from somewhere on the internet:

launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

That doesn't do anything, and there's no process with "dbus" in the name in the process table. If I then run digikam or kanagram or any other KDE application, the program just hangs.
