dbus-broker-13-1.fc27

FEDORA-2018-51a0beed51 created by tomegun 5 years ago for Fedora 27
  • The --verbose command-line switch was dropped from both the broker and the launcher. Its behavior is now the default.
  • Fix a startup dead-lock with systemd NSS plugins. This requires setting the SYSTEMD_NSS_BYPASS_BUS environment variable, so libnss_systemd.so will skip recursive bus-calls.
  • Read /etc/{passwd,groups} early on from the launcher to pre-initialize the nss-cache. This allows startup on properly configured systems without ever calling into NSS. Furthermore, in case this does not resolve all required usernames, the launcher will loudly log any call into NSS, to better debug early dead-locks in bus startup code. Note that this new mechanic overrules /etc/nsswitch.conf for the launcher. However, this is only made based on the assumption that if an entry is present in /etc/{passwd,groups}, it better be a valid entry. If an entry is not present, the launcher will still correctly call into NSS.
  • The compatibility launcher now namespaces transient systemd units based on its own name on the scope-bus (i.e., the bus dbus-broker-launch uses to ask systemd for activation of units). This allows running private dbus-broker instances, while using transient systemd-units on the scope-bus for activation. For instance, at-spi2 can use activated units that clash with the namespace of the session or system bus.
  • Several bug-fixes.
