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

If the intention of this dependency is "this package needs a working
system bus" (similar to polkitd or network-manager), consider replacing
the dependency on dbus with:
default-dbus-system-bus | dbus-system-bus
