The following reply was made to PR ports/147815; it has been noted by GNATS.

The rc.d script is still mentioned in various places, like the install message (+DISPLAY) and the page the message refers to (http://am-productions.biz/docs/hplip.php). I believe the daemons used to be required for some driver features to work, it's quite possible that this has changed, but I don't think I've seen this mentioned when upgrading the port. Does this mean that the daemon is no longer required or is it started in some other way? Is this documented somewhere? > I use hplip without dbus and it does not mention this error. but I use > the version in the last PR I submited It's quite possible that this is something specific to this setup, anything else that can prompt hpssd to enable dbus support even when disabled during build? From a quick root around, the error appeared to come from /usr/local/share/hplip/hpssd.py, which contains an unconditional check near the top. Is this supposed to be removed when building WITHOUT_DBUS? Regards, Alson
