Dear All,
I am attempting to remove /usr/local/share from the list of paths dbus-daemon will search for system bus .service files in, but without success.
According to dbus-1.6.12/doc/dbus-specification.html from the dbus source package,
"On Unix systems, the system bus should default to searching for .service files in /usr/local/share/dbus-1/system-services, /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services and
/lib/dbus-1/system-services, with that order of precedence. It may also search other implementation-specific locations, but should not vary these locations based on
environment variables. ^[3]"
I tried the following edit, (unified diff follows),

but that resulted in dbus-daemon failing to start with the following diagnostic (from journalctl)
> dbus-daemon[647]: Failed to start message bus: No text content expected inside XML element standard_system_servicedirs in configuration file
My motivation is to deal with this problem (diagnostic from journalctl), produced with the default configuration,
> dbus-daemon[663]: Cannot setup inotify for '/usr/local/share/dbus-1/system-services'; error 'Permission denied'
which occurs because /usr/local is the mountpoint for a remote mount on my systems -- something I don't want to have to change.
Please advise?
Many thanks
Tom Crane
