dbus: fix ujail configuration

2025-08-14T08:58:04Z

Running dbus as an unprivileged user fails for two reasons: Cannot write pid file and cannot read the installed policies: Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.info dbus-daemon[8568]: jail: exec-ing /usr/bin/dbus-daemon Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.info dbus-daemon[8585]: Encountered error 'Failed to open "/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.conf": Permission denied' while parsing '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.conf' Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.err dbus-daemon[8568]: dbus-daemon[8585]: Encountered error 'Failed to open "/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.conf": Permission denied' while parsing '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.conf' Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.warn dbus-daemon[8585]: Failed to start message bus: Failed to open "/var/run/dbus.pid": Permission denied Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.err dbus-daemon[8568]: dbus-daemon[8585]: Failed to start message bus: Failed to open "/var/run/dbus.pid": Permission denied Tue Aug 5 17:12:41 2025 daemon.info dbus-daemon[8568]: jail: jail (8585) exited with exit: 1 Fix by dropping the pid file when running unprivileged and changing the owner of the installed policies.

dbus: use pid file owned by dbus

2025-08-01T21:35:41Z

Switching to the dbus user in edc5a534 also needed to redefine the location of dbus.pid into the directory under its ownership. This commit fixes that omission. Build system: x86/64 Build-tested: x86/64-glibc Run-tested: x86/64-glibc Signed-off-by: John Audia

dbus: run as regular user rather than as root

2025-07-31T08:59:55Z

Running as a dedicated dbus users is better from both a security and an isolation perspective than running as root. Build system: x86/64 Build-tested: x86/64-glibc Run-tested: x86/64-glibc Signed-off-by: John Audia

dbus: update to 1.16.2

dbus: take maintainership of the package

2023-09-08T21:40:41Z

Since it seems that this nobody wants to be the maintainer of dbus, I can take the responsibility. I am no dbus expert, but can runtime test it and see if change seems sane. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko

dbus: update to 1.14.10 stable

2023-09-08T21:39:39Z

Current stable branch for dbus is 1.14 and that is recommended to be used. 1.13 was a development branch and not meant for production use. 1.14.10 is the latest stable, so lets move to it. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko

dbus: drop CMake patches

2023-09-08T21:04:33Z

CMake is not being used to build dbus as it does not respect endinaness under CMake and 1.14 branch. So, lets drop the patches as they will not apply to future 1.14 update. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko

treewide: remove AUTORELEASE

2023-04-21T20:46:58Z

Automatically compute and substitute current values for all $(AUTORELEASE) instances as this feature is deprecated and shouldn't be used.

dbus: fix configure args for verbose mode

When switching from cmake to autotools, the wrong logging was used for the verbose compilations option. This commit fixes that. Signed-off-by: Florian Eckert

dbus: switching back to autotools to fix big endian issue

2022-02-04T13:29:07Z

According to the upstream developers of dbus, cmake is only inteded for windows. Unix like operating systems should continue to use the autotools stack. Since the changeover to cmake, the dbus was no longer usable on all big endian systems because the name binding no longer worked. In cmake, it is not evaluated whether it should run on a little endian or big endian system. This fixes issue #17780. The original problem occurred when using the modem manager on the big endian system (MIPS). Signed-off-by: Florian Eckert
