dbus-sesssion questions

[Matthias Geiger]

Hi Simon,

I wanted to ask a few questions regarding dbus in general. I think we 
all agree that every package shipping a (plain) dbus session should 
Provide: dbus-session-bus. What isn't that clear to me:

What is the purpose of dbus-user-session? As far as I understand, this 
is *not* the plain dbus session, but rather where a user session is 
assumed to start the first time after login, and it doesn't end
 until all login sessions have ended. It also provides dbus-services 
 with XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and runs dbus-activation-enviroment --all. 

Am I also correct in assuming that a possible dbus-openrc-user-session 
package would also need to Provide: dbus-user-session ?

I think this is similar to #1136936.

best,
