Severity: normal

Usertags: direct-dbus-dependency

This package has a direct Build-Depends and 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

For the Build-Depends, if it's using dbus-run-session to run tests, the 
dbus-daemon package would probably be a better dependency.

For the runtime Depends, consider using "default-dbus-system-bus | 
dbus-system-bus" to get Debian's default implementation of a D-Bus 
system bus.
