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. ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- DBus errors on Command Line https://launchpad.net/bugs/75381 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
