[RESOLVED] Missing 'D-Bus Service' section in service file [...]

Hi everybody,

After a botched `pacman -Syu` that froze on "Reloading system manager configuration...", I ended up not being able to start up my GNOME sessions.

The output of `journalctl --boot` is available here: http://0x0.st/XP19.txt

The errors that I believe may be worth a look is the following:

May 18 23:46:30 ccjmne-arch dbus-broker-launch[3905]: Missing 'D-Bus Service' section in service file '/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.impl.portal.desktop.gtk.service'

The issue may also come from the following, but I'm really unsure...

May 18 23:46:30 ccjmne-arch kernel: ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: UCSI_GET_PDOS failed (-95)

It happens 10 times throughout the logs.

I hope you'll be able to help me figure out what is going on...

Thank you!

Re: [RESOLVED] Missing 'D-Bus Service' section in service file [...]

I figured I could just cleanly rebuild/reinstall whichever package owned each file.

`paru --query --owns <file>` wasn't of much help ("error: No package owns [...]"), but I figured something was broken with GNOME.

I tried reinstalling all packages containing "gtk", "gdm" or "gnome" in their name, to no avail.

Eventually, I settled for an excessively blunt, yet effective last resort:

paru --sync --overwrite '*' --rebuild=tree $(paru --query --explicit --quiet)

That worked.
