playerctl Build-Depends on dbus-x11, presumably because test/conftest.py 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 --print-address and --print-pid options: for example, search for --print-pid in https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/tinysparql/-/blob/debian/trixie/tests/functional-tests/dbusdaemon.py?ref_type=heads for an example of doing this from Python code. Thanks, smcv
