Bug#740139: gnome-maps fails to start

Yes, implemented in 1.8.0-2. I'd still like to know why it didn't work, but since any restart (including one to install a version of dbus with more debug info) would hide the bug, we'll probably never know. (Possibly the severity of this should be lowered since the program will start working next time dbus is reloaded for some reason, like ie. a reboot.) I agree. I don't think this should be considered RC for dbus. S -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#740139: gnome-maps fails to start
Control: reassign -1 dbus Control: affects -1 gnome-maps Control: fixed -1 1.8.0-2 Hello! I remember us discussing this on IRC, and if I'm not mistaken the problem went away when manually reloading/restarting dbus. This makes me suspect the automatic reloading of dbus did not work properly and as Simon McVittie already suggested using dpkg triggers to be definitely sure that a reload happens I'm reassigning this bug report to dbus where I think it can be closed when the triggers has been implemented (which it already has?). (Possibly the severity of this should be lowered since the program will start working next time dbus is reloaded for some reason, like ie. a reboot.)

Exception was: Gio.DBusError: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.GeoClue2: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 253 I don't suppose you had a locally-installed geoclue-2.0 in /usr/local or anything like that? Otherwise, this means dbus-daemon executed dbus-daemon-launch-helper, instructing it to behave according to /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.GeoClue2.service, and dbus-daemon-launch-helper exited 253 before the name org.freedesktop.GeoClue2 appeared on the bus. That, in turn, probably means that the process described in the .service file exited 253 (at least, I can't find any reason why d-d-l-h would exit 253; on success, it uses exec() to become the target service). That service file for reference: [D-BUS Service] Name=org.freedesktop.GeoClue2 Exec=/usr/lib/geoclue-2.0/geoclue -t 5 User=geoclue Is it somehow possible to start the geoclue2 dbus service manually to try and debug this? Yes. The closest possible equivalent to what d-d-l-h does, without actually executing it, would go something like this: sudo -u geoclue env - \ DBUS_STARTER_ADDRESS=unix:path=/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket \ DBUS_STARTER_BUS_TYPE=system \ /usr/lib/geoclue-2.0/geoclue -t 5 or to go via d-d-l-h, maybe something like this: sudo -u messagebus \ /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper \ org.freedesktop.GeoClue2 (dbus-daemon-launch-helper is setuid root so that it can switch privileges, in this case to geoclue, and it only allows itself to be executed by messagebus.) From IRC: mlundblad I managed to get it to start by first restarting dbus.service (I'm not sure if this is too be expected) This is not meant to be necessary. If files in either /etc/dbus-1/system.d or /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services are modified, the system dbus-daemon is meant to reload itself automatically, using inotify (or kqueue on kFreeBSD). You should see a syslog message like this: Feb 26 12:42:29 archetype dbus[1328]: [system] Reloaded configuration and I've confirmed that on my sid laptop, `sudo touch /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.UPower.service` and `sudo touch /etc/dbus-1/system.d/pulseaudio-system.conf` both provoke that message (replace with any file in the appropriate directory if you don't have those packages installed). Just to be safe, I'm considering adding a trigger to dbus that registers an interest in those two directories, calls its ReloadConfig method and waits for it to finish whenever dpkg alters those directories.
