Indeed, it is strange. Maybe it is a fallout from upgrading from some
intermediate development version; it certainly works when being installed from
scratch, and when upgrading from Hoary.

After boot, you can check whether dbus is running with

$ ls -l /var/run/dbus/

With a running dbus, there should be a "pid" file and a socket. What does

  $ ls /etc/rc2.d/*dbus*

say on your system? There should be a link "/etc/rc2.d/S12dbus" pointing to
/etc/init.d/dbus.
