Public bug reported:
For example, when running in a snap.
I ran into this while testing a unity8 desktop session snap. Session
services were being dbus-activated, but dbus was running the hardcoded
paths in the session desktop files. Which weren't pointed into the
snap.
DBus has support for relocating those paths, but it only does so on
Windows.
I've added a patch to support $DBUS_ROOT on Unix and relocate paths as
needed. I've linked the upstream bug here. We may want to consider
patching Ubuntu while we wait for it to land upstream.
I've attached the patch here too.
