		<h1>The dbus-daemon service</h1>
		<p>
    		This service starts a session
    		<a href="https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus">dbus-daemon</a>.
    		It is important to set the environment variable
    		<code>DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</code>,
    		so other services depending on dbus-daemon can find it.
		</p>
		<p>
    		The <code>DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</code> environment variable
    		should be set at
    		<code>${HOME}/<var>@userconfdir@</var>/<var>@USERTREE@</var>/env/DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</code>,
    		by writing the address into this file
    		(see <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/confdir.html">configuration directory</a>).
    		It is recomended to set
    		<code>${HOME}/<var>@userconfdir@</var>/<var>@USERTREE@</var>/env/DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</code>,
    		to
    		<code><var>@tmpusdir@</var>/<var>@usrrundir@</var>/<var>@USER@</var>/<var>@USERTREE@</var>/session-bus</code>
    		(see <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/rundir.html">runtime directory</a>).
