Package: systemd-timesyncd
Version: 252.26-1~deb12u2
Severity: normal
Hello,
After installing «systemd-timesyncd», when I run timedatectl (either as root or
plain user) I get an error and command is not run:
root@noc11:~# timedatectl status
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
This is a barebone/headless server (no X, no UI), maybe a missing
dependency (d-bus?) that is not pulled to be installed but should be.
root@noc11:~# dpkg -l | grep -e dbus -e systemd
ii libdbus-1-3:amd64 1.14.10-1~deb12u1 amd64
simple interprocess messaging system (library)
ii libsystemd-shared:amd64 252.26-1~deb12u2 amd64
systemd shared private library
ii libsystemd0:amd64 252.26-1~deb12u2 amd64
systemd utility library
ii systemd 252.26-1~deb12u2 amd64
system and service manager
ii systemd-sysv 252.26-1~deb12u2 amd64

systemd-timesyncd depends on systemd, which further has dbus in
recommends via:
Recommends: default-dbus-system-bus | dbus-system-bus, systemd-timesyncd |
time-daemon
So it looks like you have recommends disabled on your system.
If you're doing this you're leaving the defaults and need
to handle this on your own, also see
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#binary-dependencies-depends-recommends-suggests-enhances-pre-depends
(Closing the bug report, as it's not a bug in systemd / systemd-timesyncd.)
