The problem wasn't that the daemon was missing. There is a DBUS
daemon, and other things that use DBUS (e.g. notifications) work fine.

What was apparently missing was a "session"

    $ set | grep dbus
    
    $ dbus-launch bash 

    $ set | grep DBUS
    DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-45cBmpKpTX,guid=b783eda6500beba7132e450b63596c64
