How to start notifications on openrc version?
maddox - about 3 years ago -
I can see majority of programs using dbus are not running, even though somehow I can see dbus launched. What is the approach to start dbus on openrc version?

I really don't know, but I have dbus from nonsystemd. Do you have that version too?
pacman -Q dbus

according to the openrc guide, dbus should be enabled by default
to check services:
$ rc-status
or
$ rc-status --all
you should see dbus under the 'default' runlevel
$ rc-status
Runlevel: default
dbus
if it does not start on-boot, most services are enabled like so:
- rc-update add dbus default

I do have dbus on system and it mostly runs, but does not run
properly obviously as various services are failing.
Problem is explained here below:
sudo pacman --sync --needed dbus-openrc resolving dependencies... warning: cannot resolve "dbus-elogind", a dependency of "dbus-openrc" :: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies: dbus-openrc :: Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade? [y/N] error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: unable to satisfy dependency 'dbus-elogind' required by dbus-openrc
Do you know how to proceed?

you do not need the 'dbus-openrc' package - nonsystemd/dbus includes its init script
