I've just searched for libunity in the main repositories of the following distributions:
- OpenSuse: positive
- Arch: Negative
- Fedora: Negative
This offcourse does not mean libunity won't be installable at all, but I think having MPRIS as backup is still a good idea. So either only instantiate the MPRIS client in case libunity can't be loaded or remove the MPRIS functionality from UnityIntegration and always load MPRIS client. This would turn 'libunity' into a preferred dependecy and dbus into a required one.
Any thoughts? I'm still volunteering to take this up, but would like to know which change has the best chance to get accepted for merging :-)
