Comment(by www.macports.org@…):
To answer jmr's question:
I gave a quick look at dbus config files and from what I understand the
no_root variant does not seem to install the user LaunchAgents at all. It
looks like dbus' full functionality can only be obtained via root even
though in the case of a full non root MacPorts installation this is not
necessary since launchd fully supports non root services.
It seems logical to expect dbus to use /Users/<user-folder-name>/ instead
of / when MacPorts is installed under a non root user.
