Hi,

Qt6DBus is needed by many of the KDE frameworks libraries, Plasma 6,
and many of the KDE Applications. I know everyone likes their systems
a certain way, but it's not possible to accommodate this request as
presented. Nobody is forcing you to run the dbus daemon, but we need
to provide the library to ensure everything the ports tree builds.
Sorry to disappoint.
