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, presumably for tests.
I can't immediately see why this was done.

If the build-dependency is in fact unnecessary, please remove it.

Otherwise, it should be possible to replace dbus-x11 as follows:

* replace the build-dependency on dbus-x11 with dbus (>= 1.8)
* wrap the tests in dbus-run-session(1), for example an Autotools
  package might use "dbus-run-session -- make check"

Thanks,
    S
