Bug#758119: dnsmasq: fails to start under systemd when dbus is not installed

[Paul Wise]

Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.71-1
Severity: important
User: systemd at packages.debian.org
Usertags: systemd-units dependencies
X-Debbugs-CC: systemd at packages.debian.org

When installing dnsmasq on a newly installed Debian jessie system from
the daily debian-installer netinst ISO, I get the error below and
dnsmasq is not running afterwards but no error on sysvinit systems. This
seems to be caused by the systemd service being Type=dbus and not having
any dependency on dbus. I'm marking this bug report as important because
systemd is now the default. Please add a Depends that reflects this
(like [1]). I'm CCing the systemd maintainers in case they think this
should be solved in a more systematic way.
