This would ideally not be a hard dependency, but the integration with libmalcontent (parental controls) fails closed in some situations where it should probably fail open. I've contacted upstream. If necessary I'll either add a dpkg/apt-level dependency or revert the addition of the libmalcontent feature, but I'd prefer to make the parental controls support genuinely entirely optional, so that accountsservice and policykit-1 continue to not be required. smcv
