I also have two entries for daemondo under ‘Allow in the Background’ (System
Preferences > General > Login Items). Clicking the magnifying glass icon shows
/opt/local/bin/daemondo for both of them, so that indeed suggests they are
related to MacPorts. I found two plist files in /Library/LaunchDaemons that
contain daemondo:
❯ grep daemondo /Library/LaunchDaemons/*
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.rsyncd.plist:
<string>/opt/local/bin/daemondo</string>
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.slapd.plist:
<string>/opt/local/bin/daemondo</string>
It seems these files are installed by the rsync and openldap ports respectively:
❯ port provides /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.rsyncd.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.rsyncd.plist is provided by: rsync
❯ port provides /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.slapd.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.slapd.plist is provided by: openldap
I don’t know if the contents of these plist files could by adjusted to be
easier to identify in the System Preferences window.
I personally don’t have any entries for dbus-daemon, but they might be owned by
ports you have installed which I don’t have installed.
