Description Ed Catmur 2007-01-04 16:04:58 UTC 
From http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348323#c14 (bug 348323):

Unhandled Exception: System.Exception: Unable to open the session message bus.
---> System.ArgumentNullException: Argument cannot be null.
Parameter name: address
  at NDesk.DBus.Bus.Open (System.String address) [0x00000]
  at NDesk.DBus.Bus.get_Session () [0x00000] --- End of inner exception stack
trace ---

  at NDesk.DBus.Bus.get_Session () [0x00000]
  at NDesk.DBus.BusG.Init () [0x00000]
  at FSpot.Driver.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000]

(with the f-spot screensaver).

DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS needs to be added to allowed_env_vars in get_env_vars() in gs-job.c.

Bummer.  I added that to the list in gs-window-x11 a few months ago but not gs-job.
Comment 3 Fabian Kneissl 2007-01-04 16:52:06 UTC 
Thank you for fixing! Just works.
Comment 4 William Jon McCann 2007-01-05 16:46:57 UTC 
Ok assuming I got the svn stuff right this should be fixed in 2-16 and head.  Thanks.
