[pkg-cinnamon] Bug#835844: cinnamon-session: please switch from dbus-x11 to default-dbus-session-bus | dbus-session-bus

[Simon McVittie]

Source: cinnamon-session
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal
User: dbus at packages.debian.org
Usertags: dbus-launch default-dbus-session-bus

As described in <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2016/08/msg00554.html>
I'm trying to reduce how much dbus-launch is used in Debian.
This package currently Depends on dbus-x11 as a way to get a session bus.

This package falls into the "desktop sessions" category: please replace

    Depends: dbus-x11

with

    Depends: default-dbus-session-bus | dbus-session-bus

so that either dbus-user-session or dbus-x11 can be used. My short-term
goal with this is that major desktop environments in Debian stretch should
be able to run with either dbus-user-session or dbus-x11, with the other
one uninstalled.

This package might also need a change in upstream code to avoid running
dbus-launch when DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is unset, but
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus exists. I'll open a separate bug for that; it's
probably best if this happens in gnome-session first and gets
cherry-picked into the GNOME derivatives.

Thanks,
    S
