Dear Maintainer(s),

libpcap0.8-dev sets "Libs.private: -ldbus-1" in its pkg-config file,
but it does not have a dependency on libdbus-1-dev, causing a build
failure in reverse dependencies that use pkg-config --static (or macro
variations thereof).

Please consider adding this dependency, so that everything works out
of the box. Found while rebuilding src:openvswitch. I've opened a MR
on Salsa which does just this:

Thank you!

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
