Version: 0.9.2-3
Severity: normal
User: dbus at packages.debian.org
Usertags: dbus-launch dbus-launch-for-tests
As described in <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2016/08/msg00554.html>
I'm trying to reduce how much dbus-launch is used in Debian.
This package currently build-depends on dbus-x11, xvfb and xauth but
does not appear to use them.
If these build-dependencies are in fact no longer used, please remove them.
This appears to be the case in practice, because build-time tests are
disabled.
If there is a use of dbus-launch (dbus-x11) that I hadn't found, please
run the tests in dbus-run-session instead, which requires a build-dependency
on dbus (>= 1.8) instead. It will usually look something like this:
dbus-run-session -- make check
Thanks,
S
