On my bullseye/sid lappie, for comparison to yours:

kent@westk-9463:~$ ls -lah /usr/share/dbus-1/
total 84K
drwxr-xr-x   8 root root 4.0K Sep 17 19:55 .

kent@westk-9463:~$ ls -lahd /usr/share/dbus-1/
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4.0K Sep 17 19:55 /usr/share/dbus-1/




My system now is back to **normal**. I re-installed
about a dozen packages including systemd.
I also changed one mode  to match yours.

frank@franklin:~$ ls -lah /usr/share/dbus-1/
total 44K
drwxr-xr-x   6 root root 4.0K Oct  3 10:08 .
drwxr-xr-x 246 root root  12K Oct  2 16:56 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4.0K Oct  3 10:08 interfaces
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4.0K Oct  3 09:20 services
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 3.6K Jul  2 09:19 session.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 5.7K Jul  2 09:19 system.conf
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4.0K Oct  3 10:08 system.d
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4.0K Oct  3 10:08 system-services

Still don't know what the h*ll happened.

Thanks Kent
