Description: 
chkconfig can be used to enable/disable init scripts and [x]inetd services. 
e.g. chkconfig vsftpd on -> disable xinetd config and turns on vsftpd init 
script chkconfig vsftpd xinetd -> turns off init script and enable xinetd 
config chkconfig vsftpd off -> turns off init script and/or xinetd config

A similar mechanis could be used to manage dbus system services. Currently 
there is no way to turn off dbus system services. As soon a package drops a 
file in /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/ the service activates on demand. 
Also, some can be started either via init script or via system bus activation. 
Examples are avahi or hal.
