Description Horace Michael (aka H&M) 2019-04-15 20:05:33 UTC

Hello,
Quote from Arne's post in Forum https://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=22608&p=123779#p123779:

"The DBUS message in not new... the netdev group is not present on IPFire but dbus is installed as needed dependency of some software it connot really used because there is no desktop so it cannot ask the user for informations.

Please create bug."


This is the boot error I see retaled to netdev:

Starting the D-Bus Messagebus Daemon...
dbus[13058]: Unknown group "netdev" in message bus configuration file  [  OK  ]


Sorry, have no other information about this...

Hello, I've installed dbus on a completely fresh IPFire 2.21 Core 139 installation.

I'm unable to reproduce the error message, dbus starts well without any note about the "netdev" group.

Also when grepping through the config files there is no hint for that group name.

Please report if the issue still exists.

Thanks in advance,

-Stefan

I assume, this issue is gone and therefore the bug can be close.

Please feel free to re-open if the issue still exists.
