It looks like some parts of gnome were missing. Reinstalled the gnome package and a bunch more packages got re-installed and fixed. Still not working. However, now the only service which stills fail to start and is broken is org.freedeskop.systemd1, which twice tries and fails to startup due to being unable to connect to dbus. The only secondary error message is
*** (process:9186): WARNING **: 22:13:55.891: Failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: Could not connect: No such file or directory (g-io-error- quark. 1) I found a reference that suggested running $(dbus-launch) and that reports bash: DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/tmp/dbus-L68Wk6Gubv,guid=697644166f124eb406412cc967592ea1: No such file or directory However /tmp/dbus-L68Wk6Gubv does exist (as a named pipe?) with permission srwxrwxrwx. Not though that systemctl reports the dbus service running, and the journalctl log shows other org.freedesktop services like PackageKit and hostname1 starting. But there's no reference or trace of org.freedesktop.systemd1.
