Bug Description
Binary package hint: dbus
Here's the upstream bug report
https:/
The net effect is that people using FUSE root filesystems or whose /var is in FUSE filesystem can't use dbus or any dbus applications.
The bug hasn't been addressed in intrepid ibex at all. This bug should be addressed in both distributions.
It has a patch for which I have created an ubuntu build. Will upload it next.

I have a feeling this has to do with the non-caching userdb code path. Please look at bug #15588 and compile with caching on to see if this issue is fixed. For reference bug #15589 has the noncaching issue. Basically userinfo structures need to become objects with references.
