Bug Description
Binary package hint: dbus
Minimal seed contains wpasupplicant, which depends on libdbus-1-3
Then libdbus-1-3 recommends dbus, resulting in the following packages being pulled in the minimal seed :
dbus
|- consolekit
| |- libck-connector0
| |- libdbus-glib-1-2
| | |- libglib2.0-0
| | | |- (libglib2.0-data)
| |- (libpam-
| |- libpolkit2
| |- libx11-6
| | |- libx11-data
| | |- libxcb-xlib0
| | | |- libxcb1
| | | | |- libxau6
| | | | |- libxdmcp6
|- libexpat1
|- (dbus-x11)
This pulls X libraries on server installs where they should not be needed by default.
Solution: downgrade the dbus Recommends to a "Suggests".
