I updated my system and after sys-app/dbus updated from version 0.62-r2 to version 1.0.2 my gdm didn't start anymore. I re-emerged gdm, but it didn't help. I had to downgrade my dbus back to 0.62-r2 to be able to login to my system using gdm. Thank you Timo Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. update dbus from 0.62-r2 to 1.0.2 2. 3.
Did you run revdep-rebuild as dbus told you?
(In reply to comment #1) > Did you run revdep-rebuild as dbus told you? > This problem also happened to me. revdep-rebuild failed to compile gedit (first of 42 packages to emerge). I solved the issue by ln -sfn /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3.2.0 /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.2 (it is not very clean, but now gnome boots again).
emerge --resume --skipfirst && emerge gedit Portage seems not to be able to sort the packages in the correct order.

Ok, then I close this as invalid...if Timo Meinen reports otherwise, this can be reopened.
