haguichi won't launch without dbus-launch

[Andreas B. Wagner]

If I start haguichi on archlinux from the command line with "haguichi" I get the errors below. I have tried older versions as well as the newest 1.16 and I get the same errors. If I launch haguichi from the cli with "dbus-launch haguichi" it works fine.

Haguichi depends on DBus. It should already be available before you start Haguichi. Or as the dbus-launch manual [1] states:
"The dbus-launch command is used to start a session bus instance of dbus-daemon from a shell script. It would normally be called from a user's login scripts."

I don't who's fault it is that dbus-daemon isn't launched on Arch at login, but I'm pretty sure it's not mine.
