Hi Simon,

I maintain the Jessie backport for audacious.  As far as I can tell,
neither default-dbus-session-bus nor dbus-session-bus are provided for
Jessie, even as a virtual package.  What is your plan
is for continuing to support no-change backports for Jessie?  This
might be a good addendum for that debian-devel thread. :-)

Cheers!
Nicholas
