Hi Holger, I think we have to blame the uninformed complaints that Systemd is only for the desktop because of Dbus. Dbus can be built without X support. On Gimokod Linux the compressed package is at 240KB only. $ ldd /usr/bin/dbus-daemon linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffcd3ff000) libexpat.so.1 => /lib/libexpat.so.1 (0x00007f4317b7d000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f4317963000) librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0x00007f431775c000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f431740f000) /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f4317d9e000) See https://github.com/tongson/Gimokod/blob/f25a90aa8554149663ec768547987e44d5e4a1d7/core/dbus-core/PKGBUILD for the configure options used.
