QtUbuntu only tries to connect to dbus when app requests contents of the
clipboard for the first time, and not at startup.

Testing a simple QML file with qtubuntu, it works fine without a dbus
service running.


If application does this at startup, qtubuntu may be a source of a
crash, quoting the relevant code:

void UbuntuClipboard::setupDBus()
{
    QDBusConnection dbusConnection = QDBusConnection::sessionBus();

    bool ok = dbusConnection.connect(
            "com.canonical.QtMir",
            "/com/canonical/QtMir/Clipboard",
            "com.canonical.QtMir.Clipboard",
            "ContentsChanged",
            this, SLOT(updateMimeData(QByteArray)));
    if (!ok) {
        qCritical("UbuntuClipboard - Failed to connect to ContentsChanged signal form the D-Bus system clipboard.");
    }

    mDBusClipboard = new QDBusInterface("com.canonical.QtMir",
            "/com/canonical/QtMir/Clipboard",
            "com.canonical.QtMir.Clipboard",
            dbusConnection);

    mDBusSetupDone = true;
}

Will consider that as an enhancement.

Bug description:
  When attempting to run the Ubuntu SDK when there is no dbus session
  daemon running causes the SDK to fail. The first assumption seems to
  be in the clipboard.

  With no dbus-session:

  With a dbus-session:
