dbus seems to be an accidental build dependency of
xorg-server

if systemd-logind support is not explicitly disabled
and dbus is available then xorg will enable logind
support and dbus

this causes a useless connection to the dbus system
bus on xorg startup (only hal and logind would use it)
and if there is no dbus running on the system then
the Xorg.log gets filled with

 (EE) dbus-core: error connecting to system bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound (Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory)

every 10 seconds..

so i rebuilt my xorg-server package with the attached
patch

ping

i've seen other ppl running into this.

i think there is no loss of functionality without dbus.

Sorry. I thought this was applied already.

commit e407b99757d2de626285db2da8692c7c883d6436 (Sun May 24 17:58:47
2015 -0400, main/xorg-xserver: disable systemd features) should disable
systemd already.

I have applied the removal of dbus-dev and dbus-x11 deps now. Thanks
