Public bug reported:

When I run `sudo update-manager` from the command line, some error output is 
sent to the command line::
------------------
 `warning: could not initiate dbus`
------------------
and then when I press Check, another error::
------------------
 `could not send the dbus Inhibit signal: Did not receive a reply. Possible 
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was broken.`
------------------


Additionally, when I run `update-manager` as an unprivileged user, I get a 
seperate error::
------------------
 `Introspect error: The name org.freedesktop.UpdateManager was not provided by 
any .service files
no listening object (The name org.freedesktop.UpdateManager was not provided by 
any .service files) 
Unhandled exception in thread started by <bound method MetaRelease.download of 
<MetaRelease object (UpdateManager+MetaRelease+MetaRelease) at 0xb68aa75c>>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/UpdateManager/MetaRelease.py", line 
167, in download
    f=open(self.METARELEASE_FILE,"w+")
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 
'/home/stuhood/.update-manager/meta-release'`
------------------

The app works just fine, and I can get and install updates just fine in
both cases, but I thought I ought to point this one out, since most
people probably run update-manager from the menu/tray, and never see
these.
