Package: dbus
Version: 1.16.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
dbus currently declares a dependency on base-files or usr-is-merged
packages. These dependencies were previously added as an attempt to
ensure the system is /usr-merged before installing dbus.
dbus is the only package in debian that declares a dependency on the
usr-is-merged package.
base-files is an essential package and debian trixie only functions with
a /usr-merged filesystem layout. It is guaranteed that a debian trixie
system is /usr-merged.
This makes it unnecessary for dbus to declare a dependency on base-files
or the usr-is-merged package (which itself is now a virtual package
provided by base-files).
Please remove the dependencies. Patch attached. Thanks.

Closes: 1099086 1099706
Changes:
dbus (1.16.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Pass fewer options to adduser (Closes: #1099086)
- Remove --no-create-home. Add a versioned dependency on 3.130
instead, so that /nonexistent will be special-cased to not be created.
- Remove --home /nonexistent.
This is the default for system users since 3.122.
- Remove --disabled-password.
This is the default since at least 3.118 (Debian 11).
* d/p/debian/sysusers.d-Set-user-s-home-directory-to-nonexistent.patch:
Add patch so sysusers.d sets home directory /nonexistent, making it
consistent with what adduser would do
* d/dbus-system-bus-common.postinst: Create system user in more
situations, matching the behaviour of dh_installsysusers
* d/dbus-system-bus-common.postinst: Use systemd-sysusers if available.
This avoids needing an unconditional dependency on adduser.
* d/control: Remove alternative dependency on usr-is-merged.
Now that a version of base-files that enforces merged /usr has been
in testing for a while, we can drop the alternative dependency, which
should help apt to realise that usr-is-merged can be autoremoved.
The versioned dependency on base-files is intentional (see #1054650,
#1072756, #1085407) and should be kept until the beginning of the
forky cycle. During upgrades from bookworm to trixie, if a system has
been misconfigured to force non-merged /usr (contrary to #978636,
#994388), then we want that misconfiguration to be detected by
base-files.preinst and stop the upgrade early, without first
installing a version of dbus that will not work on that system.
(Closes: #1099706)
* Standards-Version: 4.7.2 (no changes required)
