Thank you very much Mantas, it works like a charm. I modified my configuration file and it looks like that now:
```
<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
"-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>
<policy user="root">
<allow own="net.poettering.Calculator" />
<allow send_destination="*" />
<allow send_type="*" />
<allow send_interface="*" />
</policy>
</busconfig>
"-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>
<policy user="root">
<allow own="net.poettering.Calculator" />
<allow send_destination="*" />
<allow send_type="*" />
<allow send_interface="*" />
</policy>
</busconfig>
```

Here is my issues:I am trying to use the lib sd-bus, following this blog post: http://0pointer.net/blog/the-new-sd-bus-api-of-systemd.html .I am able to launch my own service on the *user* bus.When I launch it on the *system* bus, problems appear.First I had a permission denied issue, and to correct it I had to create a configuration file in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/net.poettering.Calculator.conf . As stated in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32828468/sd-bus-api-sd-bus-request-name-returns-permission-denied .Thus the executable launches perfectly (no more 'permission denied' errors).This is normal as the system bus is "deny everything by default", to make sure unprivileged users can't impersonate a service.Now I am trying to inspect the service with D-feet. The service is well listed on the left pane: net.poettering.Calculator, but when I click on it, I get an error window stating :'net.poettering.Calculator: g-dbus-error-quark: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":-1.1996" (uid=1000 pid=3110822 comm="/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/d-feet" label"unconfined") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable" member="Introspect" error name ="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=net.poettering.Calculator" (uid=0 pid=3110595 comm="./-bus-service" label="unconfined")(9)' .This also means you need to allow things in the dbus-daemon policy. Not only does the service need permissions to claim a name, but everyone also needs permissions to send it messages (and receive replies).In many cases you can copy a basic policy that just allows everything from any UID to your service (possibly still limited by interface), like how UDisks2.conf does it.
