Package: dbus Version: 0.61-5 Severity: important
For a certain class of users on my systems apps that need dbus to start fail to do so. The symptom is as follows: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hal-device error: dbus_bus_get: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: No reply within specified time The user test only lives on a LDAP server, it has no /etc/passwd entries. If I add an entry there all is well. So this sounds like a timeout issue, but if I read the source correctly (which could very well not be the case;) dbus_bus_get in the end calls _dbus_pending_call_new with a timeout value -1 which means 25 seconds. And the hal-device commands only takes a short while to complete, certainly not 25s. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (60, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.6 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to nl_NL.utf8) Versions of packages dbus depends on: ii adduser 3.87 Add and remove users and groups ii debianutils 2.16.1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-2 0.61-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.2 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libsm6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-6 X11 client-side library ii lsb-base 3.1-8 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip dbus recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
