On OS X the DBus lives in there while on Linux (KUbuntu 14.04) I use the system's DBus which is configured to be aware of /opt/local/share too. This works for just about everything, but I cannot seem to get the cookie handler service to work on either platform. Kded5 is running (and is auto-started by `kcmshell5 cookies`) so that's not the issue. I do notice that kcookiejar5 exits immediately without forking when I start it manually.

kcookiejar5 is just a client-side tool (*).

The actual service is provided by a kded module. You can see if it works by doing 
$ qdbus org.kde.kcookiejar5 /modules/kcookiejar

(*) the output from kcookiejar5 --help was confusing, I just fixed it.
