Package: selinux-dbus
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, which prevents it
from being used in conjunction with 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,
smcv
