Subject: Please drop dependency on deprecated dbus-glib
As per https://bugs.debian.org/955914, dbus-glib is deprecated and will be removed from Debian. I believe Net-DBus-GLib falls into this category: Show quoted text
> In a few cases, the package uses the reference D-Bus library libdbus > for all D-Bus-related APIs, and only uses dbus-glib as a way to > connect libdbus to the GLib main loop: if the only functions > referenced from dbus-glib are dbus_connection_setup_with_g_main() and > dbus_server_setup_with_g_main(), then you are in this situation. The > recommended replacement in this case is to bundle the dbus-gmain > branch from the dbus-glib git repository, for example as a `git > subtree` or `git submodule`. For example, dbus-python's GLib > integration now works like this. See > <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus-glib/blob/dbus-gmain/README.md> > for more details.
