The current pyGObject based DBUS lib used with gps2tsdb requires 100s of MB of unrelated dependencies. If we continue to use Python for most of our containers and DBUS as our main communication bus, this will become unsustainable soon

Options:

  • Find out what files within pyGObject/pyCario are actually dependencies needed by python3-dbus and only download those. Will require significant effort to find these
  • Use another library. Possible alternatives:
    • Jeepney New actively developed option. Very unstable and appears to have some weird issues
    • python-dbus-next Redux of python-dbus which had fallen out of development, also very new in development
    • Others?
