I had the same problem when upgrading to 2.14.4-1 with the session only
lasting less than 10 seconds.
The .xsession-errors when logging in as root was:
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: running: /usr/X11R6/bin/sessreg -a -w
/var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l
":0" "root"
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
Failed to start message bus: Failed to read directory
"/etc/dbus-1/${prefix}/share/dbus-1/services": No such file or directory
EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon
I solved this problem by editing the /etc/dbus-1/session.conf file and
finding the section
<servicedir>${prefix}/share/dbus-1/services</servicedir> and changing it
to <servicedir>/usr/share/dbus-1/services</servicedir>
Sessions now start as expected. (but i expect this "fix" will break
something in the future!)
Cheers
