Package: dbus
Version: 1.4.16-1
Severity: minor
There is no obvious reason for filing D-Bus alongside fort77 and
piuparts in the "devel" section. Unlike them it is a piece of system
infrastructure guaranteed to be installed and in regular use on any
end-user machine with a mainstream desktop environment. Compare:
PACKAGE SECTION DEPENDENCIES
acpi-support admin Recommends: dbus
consolekit admin Depends: dbus
dbus devel
dbus-x11 x11 Depends: dbus
policykit admin Depends: dbus
rsyslog admin
udev admin
udisks admin Depends: dbus
In case it isn't obvious, I think it should be in "admin".
(Trivial patch against the experimental version attached)
