[Bug 1811152] Re: Locally installed services can't add dbus configuration

[Sebastien Bacher]

Did you check if the issue is specific to Ubuntu?
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/blob/dbus-1.12/bus/system.conf.in
doesn't seem to include it either upstream?

Title:
  Locally installed services can't add dbus configuration

Status in dbus package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  A report was received in upstream fwupd about how the daemon wasn't
  able to start after the following commands:

  # meson build
  # ninja -C build
  # ninja -C build install

  This placed everything in /usr/local by default.
  It also created an /usr/local/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.conf

  The daemon can (attempt to) be started by:
  /usr/local/libexec/fwupd/fwupd -v

  It fails to acquire org.freedesktop.fwupd on dbus system bus however.

  This is because by default dbus on Ubuntu does not examine files in
  /usr/local/etc/dbus-1/system.d.

  This issue can be fixed if the following is added to
  /usr/share/dbus-1/system.conf:


      <includedir>/usr/local/etc/dbus-1/system.d</includedir>
