This is DBusKit complaining about unsuccessful connection attempts to
the system-wide D-Bus daemon. This is expected if it is not enabled
on your system. It shouldn't affect SimpleAgenda because it wants a
connection to the session bus. Are the messages too noisy? I could
easily reduce them to debug messages.

This looks like an DBusKit bug, I'll investigate it.

Apart from the D-Bus daemon (which is just the message broker), you need
some application that provides the org.freedesktop.Notifications service
so SimpleAgenda can use it. I think both Gnome and KDE come with a
component to provide it but there are also some standalone packages. (In
Debian, for example, notification-daemon or notify-osd)
