I ran a tdebase build with WITH_HAL=NO, WITH_TDEHWLIB=NO and no related patching. The build fails with the same error about not finding dbus/dbus.h. The failure occurs when building tdm backend, in consolekit.c.

The only fix for now is not test at all to force building with dbus-tqt. If somebody desires to build tdm backend without consolekit support then some other build option and test is needed.
