Subject: gcr4: directly Build-Depends on dbus
Message-ID: <aTsMYcV0J19WXgXx@remnant.pseudorandom.co.uk>
MIME-Version: 1.0

Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org

Source: gcr4
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

If the only reason for this dependency is to be able to run 
dbus-run-session, then dbus-daemon would be a good replacement.
