Description

Created attachment 54653 use install root as base for relative pathes

Starting dbus service executables on windows are processed with CreateProcess.

On windows installations it is required to use relative pathes for service executables because install pathes may change.

According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682425%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

when using relatives pathes, the base path is determined from

1. The directory from which the application loaded
2. The current directory for the parent process. ..

The appended patch fixes this issue.
