BLFS no longer contains ConsoleKit, and ConsoleKit can be considered dead now (the ConsoleKit2 fork has no action in the recent year). In BLFS systemd (with PAM) or elogind provide a similar functionality. I can see no reason to mention ConsoleKit in the book now.

<para>D-Bus is a message bus system, a simple way for applications to talk
|
|
to one another. D-Bus supplies both a system daemon (for events such as
|
|
"new hardware device added" or "printer queue changed") and a
|
|
per-user-login-session daemon (for general IPC needs among user
|
|
applications). Also, the message bus is built on top of a general one-to-one
|
|
message passing framework, which can be used by any two applications to
|
|
communicate directly (without going through the message bus daemon).</para>
