Why are you compiling yourself? I highly advise you use Yocto Project to get
the sysroot for your device, which should include D-Bus already. If the pre-
made sysroot from your vendor does not, you can modify the recipe to add it.

Please confirm the password database works on your device. Write a simple C
program that uses getpwuid_r with a uid of your user (you said it's root) and
confirm it does find the user's information.

This message hasn't existed in the D-Bus sources since 2013. It was removed
before D-Bus 1.8.
Please confirm you're using a release from the past 2 years. If you're not,
then upgrade and try again before you reply.

"The messagebus' what? The "messagebus" user? No, you have to create it
yourself. The .pid file is created by the daemon when it starts.

The user should not be root.

Where's the rest?
