dbus-glib is a deprecated D-Bus library with some significant design

use, and eventually remove it from Debian.
It seems that lxappearance doesn't actually require dbus-glib, it just
has it in Build-Depends (presumably left over from a previous version
that actively used it).
I've confirmed that the attached patch does not affect the contents of
the binary packages. Please apply it during the forky cycle so that we
can make some progress towards removing dbus-glib.
Thanks,
