Lintian tag: dbus-session-service-wrong-name
Type: information
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
The package contains a D-Bus session service whose filename does not match
the Name field found in the file. This makes it possible that two
non-conflicting packages could provide the same service name with the same
search-path priority (i.e. in the same directory). dbus-daemon will
arbitrarily choose one of them, which is unlikely to be the desired
result.
Best-practice is that if you implement a session service whose well-known
name is com.example.MyService1, and it should be service-activatable, you
should achieve that by packaging
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.example.MyService1.service.
