[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] dbus dependency introduces unwanted X11 dependency

Hi there,


I'm currently running bluez-utils version 2.25-1

Upgrading to 3.7-1 gives me the following problem:

I have a server running Debian/testing.
I want to keep this server completely free from XWindow stuff.

However, this server is to act as a bluetooth accesspoint using
the PAN profile, and the pand deamon.

This works fine with version 2.25-1 of bluez-utils/

With the new version, dbus gets pulled in. Why?
Isn't libdbus enough?

And with dbus, X11 is introduced.

This is so ugly...

It should be possible to run pand without the X11 burden.
It used to be possible in the past, but not anymore.

Could you fix this?

Thank you,

  Bram Stolk
