My problem is, in fact, thatI don't really know dbus and how it works, but I maintain gimp for macports and I usually try to go with the app's default settings. Now, if I get it right, it should work if, for example, I am running gimp inside a dbus-launched gnome-session ? I do have a dbus-daemon running but it does not seem sufficient. I get yves$ gimp-2.4 process 16616: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/opt/local/var/lib/dbus/machine- id": No such file or directory So I replaced the gimp symlink with a little script that just does "dbus-launch gimp-2.4" but I am considering to make dbus an option rather than a default in macports. Do you have an opinion about this ?
