Package `dbus-nox11` breaks xfce4

The package dbus-nox11 gets installed instead of the original one and doesn't contain the x11 sub-package with the required /usr/bin/dbus-launch. Also /usr/bin/dbus-uuidgen is missing and causes problems.

After investigating a little bit more I found out that only dbus-nox11-libs gets installed. Installing apk add dbus-nox11 adds all the required files and xfce4 starts working.

Problem is that dbus-nox11 doesn't provide the -x11 subpackage which when installed pulls in also the parent package. dbus-nox11-libs doesn't depends on parent package.

So a fix would be adding a dependency on it's parent package to dbus-nox11-libs then?

To be honest, I wonder if we can't just get rid of dbus-nox11 again. I originally added it because of #377 (closed). Is that still a problem?

I've removed the dbus-nox11 package from aports and from the repo, and rebuilt postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile. Could you please check if the issue has gone away?

@ollieparanoid I've installed everything from scratch (zap, init, install), flashed on device and xfce4 started successfully.
