tone-generator Depends on libdbus-glib-1-2 and Build-Depends on
libdbus-glib-1-dev. Please (ask upstream to) avoid these dependencies.
>From a quick look at codesearch.debian.net, it looks as though it is
actually only using libdbus APIs such as DBusConnection and DBusMessage.
If that is true, then the dependency on the deprecated dbus-glib library
could easily be dropped by removing dbus-glib-1 from the
PKG_CHECK_MODULES call, removing #include <dbus/dbus-glib.h> and
#include <dbus/dbus-glib-lowlevel.h>, and removing libdbus-glib-1-dev
from the Build-Depends in the packaging.
Thanks,
