This package has a direct Depends and Build-Depends on the dbus package.
This could be 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 running unit tests by using
dbus-run-session(1) or invoking dbus-daemon(1) directly, then a
dependency on the dbus-daemon package is likely to be sufficient.
For the runtime dependency, if the intention of this dependency is "this
package needs a working D-Bus system bus, whatever implementation Debian
prefers at the moment", please replace the Depends on dbus with:
default-dbus-system-bus | dbus-system-bus
Thanks,
smcv
