This bug relates to bug #318769
This section in /etc/dbus-
<policy user="root">
<allow own="org.
</policy>
must be written as
<policy user="root">
<allow own="org.
<allow send_destinatio
</policy>
To permit the conf files to be written.
I can replicate this in Jaunty 64-bit. Is there an update/fix in the repositories? Or should we manually fix-it?
Thanks, Nikos

I am also experiencing this. I changed that file and it still doesn't work.

I got the same error. The manual fix also does not work for me.
I would really appreciate a fix for that :-)
I tried (also) the manual fix but no luck :-(

I have exact the same problem with Jaunty 64 bit. I tried to uninstall version 0.3.1 and reinstalled the old version 0.2.7, but still had the same error. It seems that the DBUS, or python code or something else is the problem, not gnome-lirc-
In Remote Control Properties -> IR Remote Control, Custom Configuration -> Basic Configuration -> "Detect" I get the error:
Remote Configuration Failed
Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.80" (uid=1000 pid=14287 comm="/
Don't know what it means or if it helps the issue. When I try to replicate the issue described in the bug report, I get the error:
Cannot Save Custom Configuration
Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.80" (uid=1000 pid=14287 comm="/
Don't know if this is related. I run jaunty 64Bit.
Same (as MeisterLampe) here (Jaunty 64-bit).

to make it work modify /etc/dbus-
<policy context="default">
<allow send_destinatio
</policy>
must be written as
<policy context="default">
<allow send_destinatio
<allow send_destinatio
</policy>

forgot to tell you....
obviously you must reload dbus:
sudo /etc/init.d/dbus reload

hello all
I ve made a 32bit package in my PPA as a trivial fix
please test out and report back
Comments welcome!
Regards
Is it possible to have a 64-bit package as well?
Nikos
Bhavani Shankar (bhavi) wrote : | #15 |
Nikos,
well the package is published only for 32 bit since its release in the repos
let me check the deps and I ll report back
Bhavani Shankar (bhavi) wrote : | #16 |
its not possible as a 64bit package is not available for gnome-doc-utils which is a dep for this package
Regards
:-(
...
I'll give it a try anyway... or should I not?
I would expect another error than the following:
" Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python-support (>= 0.90.0) ".
Isn't this supposed to be covered by the python-support package found in the repositories?
Bhavani Shankar (bhavi) wrote : | #19 |
again the package is available only for 32 bit mate
https:/
So I doubt it works on 64 bit
Regards
From your reply (which I misinterpreted) I thought that it is not possible to have a 64-bit package. I am no expert but there are various 32-bit apps that run under 64-bit OSes. This is why I gave it a try.
Excuse my ignorance and thank you for your time :-)

nah use dpkg --force-
or

It still would take to install python-support (>= 0.90.0) first. In the repositories only version 0.87 is available ( I think ). Maybe I'll give it a try some time within the next days.
Bhavani Shankar (bhavi) wrote : | #23 |
ok Nikos I ll try to rebuild it for jaunty in a couple of days time

Thanks for your efforts Bhavani :-)

Bhavani: a few things:
- Never use or suggest the use of "dpkg --force-
- the package is "Architecture: all" which means it is the same on all architectures (python code), I just built and installed it on amd64.
- Please make use of https:/

I think this was fixed upstream here: http://
I have not verified though it it works for Ubuntu as Bastian is usually testing his stuff on Fedora.
Bhavani Shankar (bhavi) wrote : | #32 |
yeah I updated the package to 0.3.1 long time ago and still ubuntu seemed to have issues with dbus

Bhavani, the change that Johannes mentioned was after 0.3.1.

Ah sorry murray didnt see that ... but the change was included in ubuntu long time back (even before 0.3.1 I think)
