[LightDM] Failed to get D-Bus connection on FreeBSD

[Kevin Zheng]

Hi again,

To clarify, I need to `make install` LightDM as 'root' in order to
register the dbus service, right?

Right now I've installed LightDM in a custom prefix as a normal user
account for testing purposes. I saw the '--test-mode' flag and tried to
run it, but bonked out. The above error?

Thanks,
Kevin Zheng
