dbus-glib is a deprecated D-Bus library with some significant design flaws, and is essentially unmaintained. As announced in [0], I would like to minimize its use, and eventually remove it from Debian. This package Build-Depends on libdbus-glib-1-dev, but it looks as though all its D-Bus bits are implemented using GLib's GDBus, which is part of libglib2.0-0. If this analysis is correct, please remove the Build-Depends on libdbus-glib-1-dev. If this package has other uses of dbus-glib that I have missed, please see [0] for how to proceed.
