We did have some troubles with loops at building time when we
bootstrapped the distribution, and we clearly wanted to remove them as
much as possible.
A loop at runtime is potentially the sign of a loop at build time too.
So we should try to avoid them IMHO.
In the case of dbus, yes, the requires are correct, but the ordering
seems wrong during the test. So either there is a bug in what ever jbj
is running, or we do use Requires(post) in a wrong way, or that's a
change somewhere. In any case, there is still the others problem to look
at :)
