** Description changed:

  As part of the transition to dbus-broker (bug 2015538), we're going to
  demote the dbus-x11 binary package to universe.
  
  The ubiquity binary package includes ubiquity-dm, which seems to have
  once been used to run a live desktop session with the ubiquity graphical
  installer. As this was written many moons ago it assumes X11, no systemd
  user session, and a manual dbus user session launched via `dbus-launch`.
  
  Please consider the most appropriate action between:
  * Demote bin:ubiquity to universe, currently in supported due to oem-config 
which I'm not sure really needs to be supported
  * Split ubiquity-dm into a separate binary package in universe
  * Drop the `Depends: dbus-11` stanza: if there are users of ubiquity-dm they 
can add it to their seeds
- * Modernize ubiquity-dm to run a systemd user session (via pam_systemd?), 
which in turn would pull in the default user dbus service
+ * Modernize ubiquity-dm to run a systemd user session (via pam_systemd?), 
which in turn would pull in the default user dbus service, instead of 
dbus-launch
  * Delete ubiquity-dm??
