I get this on my desktop but not my laptop. I have tried for ages to find
out why it only fails on the desktop and gave up. Now I just "chmod
+x /usr/libexec/dbus-daemon-launch-helper" and it goes away, until the
next update.

Many thanks Neil!

Never do that, unless you want everyone on your system to be allowed to gain root. As in, that is same as intentionally inserting a vulnerability to your own machine.

The solution is to recompile pkgs like dev-libs/dbus-glib after dev-libs/glib upgrade (as noted by elog in the end of glib emerge) Propably 'emerge -e sys-apps/dbus dev-libs/dbus-glib' will do the trick if nothing else does

Only, this emerge likes to re-emerge several hundreds of packages.

Any comments?
Helmut
