Hm, what does "not installed properly" mean? As far as I see, they are
installed in /usr/share/dbus-1/services/:
$ ls -la /usr/share/dbus-1/services/
total 48
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 13 12:04 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jul 13 12:05 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 55 Jan 17 22:23 dhcdbd.service
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 59 Mar 20 22:43 named.service
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 72 Jul 13 12:05 org.xfce.FileManager.service
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 67 Jul 13 12:05 org.xfce.Thunar.service
coming from
$ rpm -ql Thunar | grep "\.service"
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.xfce.FileManager.service
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.xfce.Thunar.service
What am I missing here?
Thanks, Nick.
