These warnings are cause by my bug fix for PR "BiT does not start with DBus exception NameHasNoOwner" and you can find the warning in common/tools.py starting Line 1896: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/commit/ad4e91c1c9c3b85e30d77f418e8f2a... Before that change you could not even start BiT ;-) To solve it you have to install the "serviceHelper" of BiT which is either done via - installing the distro BiT qt package (because "serviceHelper" is contained in the GUI despite it is also used in the backend -> wrong layer from the software architecture point of view); this uses a released version auf "serviceHelper" even for the Github dev version so you cannot test changes in serviceHelper.py itself this way - manually installing the serviceHelper from your Github version via cd qt ./configure && make && make install My takeaway: - I should another warning line with a hint how to fix the warning (by installing the serviceHelper). Problem: The installation steps are different on each distro so a link to Github FAQs or README would be best but creates a soft dependency (never change the link target ;-) On Sun, 2022-10-23 at 07:27 +0000, c.buhtz@posteo.jp wrote:
Moin,

I can reproduce it in a VM with a fresh Debian testing and BIT from upstream master repo. Which package is might be missing here?
