Package: dbus
Severity: Important

dbus doesn't depend on systemd. this package dbus does. on systems without 
systemd this prevents dozens if not hundreds of other packages that fail to 
install solely because of their false systemd-dependency inherited from dbus.
as there might be features of interoperability between dbus and systemd 
considered useful by or for systemd system operators, these should be kept, but 
optional. as a dynamic systemd interoperation seems not to be provided or 
available, to achieve this there probably have to be two instances of this 
package, a 'dbus' and a 'dbus-systemd' or something like that.

compiling without systemd libs or with --disable-systemd just works. no patches 
necessary.
