Description Rafał Mużyło 2009-04-22 13:07:39 UTC
Right now, I'm looking at 1.2.12,
but this may affect the previous versions too.
If I'm reading configure.in and dbus/dbus-sysdeps-unix.c
correctly, 'append-flags -rdynamic' is quite pointless,
unless --enable-asserts is used too - dbus will not print
anything useful without it.

On unrelated note, 'hal xserver' warning is probably pointless too
- I am running hal enabled xorg-server and restarting dbus did nothing.
IIRC, this problem existed only somewhere between 1.4.0 and 1.5.0,
probably even a git commit can be found explicitly addressing this problem.

The unrelated note - the init script "need X" or some such - I can't recall why, its been so long, but the issue was never actually DBus itself but apps not being able to handle a dbus restart cleanly.  Could possibly be removed, and will consider it as more reports come in.
Comment 2 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-11-01 22:48:33 UTC
Should be fixed in 1.3.0-r1. Feel free to reopen if it's still causing you problems.
dbus configure actually takes care of adding --export-dynamic by itself on --enable-asserts so I just dropped the append-flags.
