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.

  What is missing is answer on questions: 1) Why one would need to
  start/stop dbus manually. 2) How it will influence automatic start?
