Bug#419702: gconf-editor - FTBFS: dbus in the build-dep chain

[Bastian Blank]

Package: gconf-editor
Version: 2.18.0-2
Severity: serious

There was an error while trying to autobuild your package:

> Automatic build of gconf-editor_2.18.0-2 on lxdebian.bfinv.de by sbuild/s390 98
[...]
> Setting up dbus (1.0.2-2) ...
> Adding group `messagebus' (GID 101) ...
> Done.
> Adding system user `messagebus' (UID 100) ...
> Adding new user `messagebus' (UID 100) with group `messagebus' ...
> Not creating home directory `/var/run/dbus'.
> Starting system message bus: dbus.
> invoke-rc.d: initscript dbus, action "start" failed.
> dpkg: error processing dbus (--configure):
>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
> Setting up html2text (1.3.2a-3) ...

gconf-editor build-depends against libgnome2-dev which pulls in dbus.
This may always fail and should be avoided.
