Does that mean that autopkgtests that directly or indirectly use the dbus-run-session tool to setup a temporary D-Bus session are buggy? If so, there are lots of dbus-run-session uses in Debian autopkgtests, including within the autopkgtests for dbus itself and parts of GNOME. https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=dbus-run-session+path%3Adebian%2Ftests%2F&literal=0 I've made this mistake myself in the mpv-mpris autopkgtests, got the tests included upstream as a build-time test (where using a mock D-Bus sessions seems correct) and then used those tests in the Debian autopkgtests, but without removing the D-Bus mocking. The other thing is testing graphical tools; should that be done in a mock X11/Wayland session (using xvfb-run), or a real desktop session? -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
