 I received a similar problem after removing all of MacPorts and doing a
 reinstall of GNUCASH.

 After following the instructions at
 http://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.uninstalling
 to remove everything after my failed attempt to build gnucash for
 'quartz', a subsequent 'sudo port install gnucash' failed with:

 The RM instructions for MACPORTS missed the file
 /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist when I
 removed everything and restarted a new install of gnucash.

 Removing the file and restarting the install, everything was okay

 Perhaps the instructions for removing macports should be amended to
 include
 /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macports.*
 and the install of dbus for macports should use the Launch agent name
 /org.macports.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
