Version: 0.24.2 Enlightenment does not start because dbus is not started. dbus-x11 should be a dependency in case no session manager is used. I recommend a enlightenment-x11 package or including x11 in enlightenment as nobody uses wayland... Pierre Couderc
Hi Pierre, I think you've misdiagnosed the problem. How are you starting enlightenment, and what error messages are you getting? Also, please provide the output of `dpkg -l dbus*` from your system. enlightenment already has: Depends: default-dbus-session-bus | dbus-session-bus See #836090 and the linked mailing list post for details on why this is the right way to depend on dbus. Ross
Certainly, you are right Ross. In fact the error could be limited to rasp os. I did omit this important point in my report ! I did solve the problem by installing dbus-x11. So now dbus is started. I cannot retrieve the exact words but the message was about : Enlightenment does not start because dbus is not started. I start it when the error existed and now too, by filling .xinitrc and manual startx after manual login.
I suggest to close this bug PC
