I can reproduce this on amd64-fbsd VM but can't on my main system. What's the state of USE=systemd on sys-apps/dbus?

(In reply to Michał Górny from comment #10)

Bad luck, that image is gone 2 :-(

I do have only 5 TB for a backlog (splitted into 2 LVs) - and reformatted the inactive LV few days ago for the upcoming switch.

[Comment 12 Michał Górny 2018-02-24 09:43:43 UTC]

Nevermind, figured it out. The tests are failing if the system-wide instance of D-Bus is not running (i.e. '/etc/init.d/dbus start' fixes them).

[Comment 13 Toralf Förster 2018-02-24 09:47:20 UTC]

which means I have to deactivate test here at the tinderbox for that package ?

[Comment 14 Michał Górny 2018-02-24 10:23:20 UTC]

Well, you can just start D-Bus, that shouldn't hurt. I'm not sure how to solve this best at package level.
