Issue #1880 has been updated by tuxillo. Status changed from New to Closed

D-Bus it's being used without issues in modern DragonFly BSD releases via dports, we no longer use pkgsrc either. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1880: hal and dbus daemons enabled turn machine in to unbootable http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/1880#change-14281 * Author: bodie * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Target version: 6.4 ---------------------------------------- I installed couple of packages with pkgin from 2010Q2 (Island mirror).
