Well, actually, this package breaks Arch Linux. As it does not allow mandatorily needed executables from Arch/core/dbus to be installed, and also does not carry them. It also does not work with systemd. It is clear that this package is not meant for Arch Linux, but for some other distro, maybe an incompatible systemd-less one. Does not belong on the AUR.
Request #49462 has been Rejected by muflone [1]: while I hate these type of packages and I'd be happy to delete them, it still has its right to be on the AUR as it builds fine, it's maintained and it's a choice for anyone wanting something different, at his risk [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/muflone/

But this package is not compatible with Arch Linux. It is for systemd-less distros. Like I said, it breaks Arch Linux.
