Regular system services do not have to declare any explicit dependency on D-Bus, as D-Bus is always and unconditionally available in the later boot phase (where regular services are started) and during runtime. If your service runs during the early boot phase however (i.e. before basic.target is reached, meaning your service has DefaultDependencies=no set), then you do need an explicit dependency, but should only specify it as After=dbus.socket + Requires=dbus.socket (i.e. on the socket rather than the service). If you don't know whether your service is an early or late boot service then it's almost certainly a late boot service. > For ex, for systemd-networkd,service, i see it specify like : > > # On kdbus systems we pull in the busname explicitly, because it > # carries policy that allows the daemon to acquire its name. > Wants=org.freedesktop.network1.busname > After=org.freedesktop.network1.busname > > > Can i use same (specifying After/Wants on a dbus name) ? Please ignore anything related to kdbus in the source, this is supported no longer, and does not apply to regular D-Bus.
