It looks like Evolution is asking D-Bus about Evolution Data Server (specifically its “Sources5” service). Unfortunately, D-Bus can’t find this service. It could be that you need to install “evolution-data-server” in your profile. However, if you are using GDM, that may not be enough. GDM starts D-Bus in a way that makes it ignorant of services in your user profile. For now, if you include “evolution-data-server” in the “packages” field of your system configuration file, it should work. For a nicer fix, we should improve the way D-Bus is started. Maybe we should start it from a login shell, reusing “exec-from-login-shell”. -- Tim
