During runtime, you need the following additional
dependencies:
- util-linux >= v2.42 required (including but not limited to: mount,
- umount, swapon, swapoff, sulogin,
- agetty, fsck, more)
+ util-linux >= v2.27.1 required (including but not limited to: mount,
+ umount, swapon, swapoff, sulogin,
+ agetty, fsck)
dbus >= 1.4.0 (strictly speaking optional, but recommended)
NOTE: If using dbus < 1.9.18, you should override the default
policy directory (--with-dbuspolicydir=/etc/dbus-1/system.d).
