this is the *system* bus which is supposed to be started by calling sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus- system.plist *once* after KDE was installed. > 6.

I suppose this connects to the system dbus-daemon. yes, this is the *session* bus. according to https://community.kde.org/Mac it should also be launched with "sudo"... but that portion hasn't changed in 2 years, so let's assume this is not the reason. @aaron: did you already see this happening before september 2014? if not: @thomas: can this be related to one of these commits: - 4802 - 4803 - 4822 - 4834 > Well, in essence, this looks to me like something is trying to load > /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist as a regular user. > This tries starting up the daemon, fails, tries again... another idea: is it possible that installing the RKWard bundle several times (upgrades) and therefore running the postinstall script several time somehow messes this up? i still don't have the best understanding of how these mac bundle packages actually work, as apple used so many different formats and the documentation is... sparse. viele grüße :: m.eik -- dipl. psych. meik michalke institut f"ur experimentelle psychologie abt. f"ur diagnostik und differentielle psychologie heinrich-heine-universit"at d-40204 d"usseldorf
