Comment:

The first error is expected, in that it is known that you cannot install files into root-owned locations like /Library if you are not root, so you should ask MacPorts not to attempt to do so. To do that, you should set startupitem_install no in macports.conf as you already discovered. This is not specific to the dbus port.

I'm not certain about the second issue.
