Jason,

 Sure, I know that KDE needs DBus.

 I was only hoping that a DBUS option be added to the QT6 port
 (with the note that KDE requires DBus). Almost all QT programs
 work well without DBus, so I imagine many people might find
 such option useful: for security-conscious applications, for
 system stability, embedded projects, and general reduction in
 filesystem and process pollution, etc.

--A.
