Can you tell to the public what is the purpose of the user-not-asked-about, in fact mostly user-never-even-knowing-about-it encrypted ssh channel that dbus sets up, along with all the non-GNU-compatible remote procedure calls (which are there for what purpose?) that dbus implements? Is that for FOSS stands for? > D-Bus is way down my list of software to steer clear of any more. Your choice. Does that mean you won't look favorably that us who don't want dbus have a way with our Devuan installs?
