Comment (by mwette):

 I'm getting "startupitems" error message

 {{{root# port clean --all dbus
 Error: Unable to open port: invalid command name "startupitems"

 root# port uninstall dbus
 Note: It is not recommended to uninstall/deactivate a port that has
 dependents as it breaks the dependents.
 The following ports will break:
  dbus-glib @0.110_0
  qt4-mac @4.8.7_7
 Continue? [y/N]: y
 Warning: Uninstall forced.  Proceeding despite dependencies.
