Obviously you are not running dbus-daemon, which accounts for the
time-out, and the delay, but where does that dependency come from? Is it
needed? apparently not.

According to OpenCV's documentation
(http://docs.opencv.org/2.4/doc/tutorials/introduction/linux_install/linux_install.html)
there is no such dependency.

Check out the libraries linked, and probably one of them has that
dependency.  Dbus library is linked somehow, the problem is which other
library was the one that brought it.  Perhaps checking with pkg-config
to see which one uses it would help.

Of course there's a better hint on your message: 'org.a11y.Bus'  I have
no idea what library, or program uses that Dbus ID.  Using Google I
found
https://github.com/GNOME/at-spi2-core/blob/master/bus/org.a11y.Bus.service.in
which is Gnome... so perhaps the OpenCV released only works with Gnome &
X-Windows running.
