emacs Build-Depends on dbus-x11, presumably because test/lisp/net/dbus-tests.el explicitly invokes dbus-launch. dbus-launch is poorly-understood legacy code and is best avoided. If this test-case wants to start a temporary dbus-daemon, connect to it, do some testing and then terminate it, it is better to invoke dbus-daemon directly (which only requires the dbus-daemon package), using its --fork, --print-address and --print-pid options: for example, search for dbus-daemon in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/flatpak/-/blob/debian/trixie/tests/libtest.sh for an example of doing this in a shell script. See also <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2016/08/msg00554.html>, a mass bug filing in 2016 (at which point I think this dependency didn't yet exist). Thanks, smcv
