Source: ayatana-indicator-datetime
Severity: normal
Tags: forky sid
User: dbus@packages.debian.org
Usertags: direct-dbus-dependency

This package has a direct Build-Depends on the dbus package. This is 
probably a larger dependency than it really needs, and could interfere 
with use of the dbus-broker package as a system bus.

For details of how to replace this dependency, please see:
https://salsa.debian.org/utopia-team/dbus/-/blob/debian/unstable/debian/replacing-dbus-dependency.txt?ref_type=heads

Because this package uses GTestDBus for tests, a dependency on the 
dbus-daemon package would probably be sufficient.
