While compiling an application today my Debian bullseye system somehowgot messed up. It will boot to a CLI but no X, apparently because forsome reason the system is unable to access some files in/usr/share/dbus-1. It keeps saying access denied. The directories andfiles are owned by root, and if I noot to a CLI I have no troubleaccessing them using sudo and midnight commander.


I tried reinstalling systemd but it ended with the same problem.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
