[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#1122690: ofono: directly Depends on dbus

Package: ofono
Severity: normal
Tags: forky sid
User: dbus at packages.debian.org
Usertags: direct-dbus-dependency

This package has a direct Depends on the dbus package. This is probably 
a larger dependency than it really needs, and could interfere with use 
of the non-default 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

Given the purpose of this package, I'm guessing the intention of this 
dependency is "this package needs a working system bus", similar to 
polkitd or network-manager. If that's the case, please replace the 
dependency on dbus with:

default-dbus-system-bus | dbus-system-bus

Thanks,
