 %changelog
+* Wed May 16 2018 David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> - 1:1.12.8-2
+- Extract 'dbus-tools' package from 'dbus-daemon' to provide all command-line
+  utilities independent of the actual message bus. They are valid to be used
+  with independent message-bus implementations, so they should not needlessly
+  pull in dbus-daemon.
+
 * Wed May 16 2018 David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> - 1:1.12.8-1
 - Extract 'dbus-common' package from 'dbus-daemon' to provide XML configuration
   and setup files as independent package ready for alternative Message Bus
