This package has a direct Build-Depends on the dbus package. This could 
be a larger dependency than it really needs, and could interfere with 
use of 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

Based on a quick look at codesearch, I can't actually see why this 
package needs dbus at all. Perhaps the answer is that it doesn't?

Or, if it's using the dbus package to run unit tests, perhaps via 
dbus-run-session(1) or by invoking dbus-daemon(1) directly, then a 
dependency on the dbus-daemon package is likely to be sufficient and 
would not interfere with using an alternative implementation like 
dbus-broker as a system bus.
