I'm going to make a test build.  I used jhalfs to tell me the order (below)

I note that the order shown spreads out the xorg libs, apps, and fonts, so
using the book's methodology would reduce the package count below by 70.

If I build in that order, then startx without an .xinitrc file should be
able to bring up a basic X window.

So, jhalfs thingk dbus only needs to be built once ?

The book recommends building it twice :

D-Bus Dependencies
Recommended

Xorg Libraries (for dbus-launch program) elogind-241.3 (first build
without, and then again after elogind is installed)

Looks like jhalfs only identifies one build. Automating circular dependencies correctly is a tough job.

To me the above wording is a little ambiguous. I think the following might be better:

Xorg Libraries and elogind-241.3 (first build
before these packages, and then again after both are installed)
