./sysutils/dbus, Message bus system

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.16.2nb5, Package name: dbus-1.16.2nb5, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

D-BUS is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in terms
of complexity.

D-BUS supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus decreasing
latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be low-overhead;
messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using XML. D-BUS also
supports a method call mapping for its messages, but it is not required;
this makes using the system quite simple.

This package provides the D-BUS core library and daemon, as well as
some utilities that complement it.

DEINSTALL [+/-]

# $NetBSD: DEINSTALL,v 1.2 2011/10/29 15:17:17 dholland Exp $

# DEINSTALL is used rather than @pkgdir because the automatic directory
# deletion mechanism makes dbus services remove these directories first,
# and thus "Directory disappeared" messages will likely appear under @pkgdir

MESSAGE.launchd [+/-]

===========================================================================
$NetBSD: MESSAGE.launchd,v 1.1 2015/01/21 05:38:59 pho Exp $

A launchd agent configuration file has been installed at:
${PREFIX}/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

You need to manually load it to auto-start a session bus. Without
loading it, no applications can start a bus nor find an existing one:
% sudo launchctl load \
${PREFIX}/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

Or alternatively, you can copy it under the system default path to
automatically load it on system boot:
% sudo cp \
${PREFIX}/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist \
/Library/LaunchAgents/
% sudo launchctl load \
/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

MESSAGE.rcd [+/-]

===========================================================================
$NetBSD: MESSAGE.rcd,v 1.2 2021/11/07 19:14:15 khorben Exp $

You should enable the dbus system-wide daemon for correct operation. Use:

$ cp ${PREFIX}/share/examples/rc.d/dbus ${SYSCONFBASE}/rc.d/dbus

Edit ${SYSCONFBASE}/rc.conf to set dbus=YES.
