Hi KatolaZ,

I gave it a quick spin on my Ascii "kitchen-sinK" machine, by replacing the
1.10.18-1.0nosystemd1 version I had previously pulled from the angband
repository with your new 1.10.18-1+devuan2.2 packages. That included dbus-x11
as well, as it was already installed on the system.

I can tell no difference in any behavior, all dbus related functionality
appears to work perfectly fine, no dependencies were broken during the change.

Oh, and gconf2 (which was also already installed, version 3.2.6-4+b1) seems
to be quite happy with it.

HTH
