gnome-terminal and gconf error — at Version 5

Reported by: watsodw Owned by: devans@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: Cc:
Port: gconf

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

Upgrade to the new version of gconf, now gnome-terminal fails to start with following error:

Failed to summon the GConf demon; exiting.  Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: Command line `dbus-launch --autolaunch=537233c7d8732f36e8be01074d373c87 --binary-syntax --close-stderr' exited with non-zero exit status 1: Autolaunch requested, but X11 support not compiled in.\nCannot continue.\n)

I have the exact same problem, while running 'meld'. I think dbus is seriously broken at the moment.

I managed to recompile dbus with X support (by modifying the Portfile) and hit another error:

Failed to get connection to session: Command line `dbus-launch --autolaunch=dcd4a7ddcfeaaf21e1b9c3444d39597f --binary-syntax --close-stderr' exited with non-zero exit status 1: EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon\n)
