I'm also suffering from this bug. When I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10, /lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper was changed to have root:fuse ownership. Checking on my other 10.04 system, it was supposed to have root:messagebus permissions.
I chown'ed that file, which then got me to a new error: $ users-admin GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications. (users-admin:13650): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error communicating with the backends: The permission of the setuid helper is not correct ...or this: $ pulseaudio E: module-console-kit.c: GetSessionsForUnixUser() call failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.PermissionsInvalid: The permission of the setuid helper is not correct E: module.c: Failed to load module "module-console-kit" (argument: ""): initialization failed.

These both appear to be side-effects of D-Bus being broken. -- update-manager crashed with DBusException in call_blocking() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/442788 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
