I'm trying to use Gentoo in WSL2 and dbus is giving me a huge headache. I need it to run podman or docker.

Here's where I'm at.

I'm on a stage3 with systemd. I've unmasked the latest version of systemd (256.11 or whatever) and am currently on the latest version. I have and intend to use WSLg.

In my wsl.conf here's my settings

Code:
[boot]
systemd=true

[user]
default=cogman

[automount]
enabled=true
root=/mnt/
options="metadata,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,fmask=11,case=off"
mountFsTab=true

[network]
generateHosts=true
generateResolvConf=true

[interop]
enabled=true
appendWindowsPath=true


Here's my windows .wslconfig[/code]

Code:
[wsl2]
memory=16GB
kernelCommandLine=cgroup_no_v1=all
localhostforwarding=true

[experimental]
autoMemoryReclaim=gradual


When I try to do something like `systemctl start docker.service` It simply hangs on `/usr/bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch`

When I try to use `systemctl --user blah`. It fails with "Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory"

I've tried creating a dbus and enabling it, but same problem as above waiting on the ask-password-agent. Even just running it manually just breaks stuff.

I'm pulling my hair out with this because I previously had it working and I don't know what magic incantation I did to make it work.

In ubuntu, I was able to fix the dbus and everything by installing the `dbus-user-session` package which doesn't appear to have an equivalent in gentoo.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answering my own question, it was the systemd-firstboot.service that messed everything up!

`systemctl disable systemd-firstboot.service` fixed everything
