[Bug 786221] Re: Dbus fails to (re)start if `/var/run/dbus/` is present

[Lekensteyn]

Ivan, that assumes that the issue only applies to DBUs when starting at
boot time, but it also occurs if DBus is quit after boot, and restarted
afterwards.

Title:
  Dbus fails to (re)start if `/var/run/dbus/` is present

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dbus

  After stopping dbus with `sudo stop dbus`, the directory
  `/var/run/dbus` and its contents are still present. The next time DBus
  is started using `sudo start dbus`, the pid file (and socket?) is
  outdated. This causes issues with NetworkManager.

  Version:
  Kubuntu 11.04 Natty 64 bits installed from Kubuntu 11.04 Natty Alternate CD
  0.8.4~git.20110319t175609.d14809b-0ubuntu3
