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 depends on dbus-x11, apparently to run tests.

It should be possible to replace dbus-x11 as follows:

* replace the test dependency on dbus-x11 with dbus (>= 1.8)
* replace "xvfb-run -a make -C tests check" with
  "dbus-run-session -- xvfb-run -a make -C tests check"

Thanks,
    S
