commit 1b48b46ca258408d88d41f646336c01746909ca9
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Sun Sep 27 22:55:43 2026 +0100

    d/control: Update short description of dbus-user-session
    
    The one-session-bus-per-uid model now has implementations that don't
    use `systemd --user` specifically, but the general shape of the design
    is the same: a service manager or similar system component starts one
    dbus-daemon for each uid that currently has at least one login session.
