I suspect the problem is this:

Program dbus-daemon found: YES (/home/user/gentoo/usr/bin/dbus-daemon)
Program dbus-broker-launch found: YES (/usr/bin/dbus-broker-launch)

which triggers this dependency on systemd in bus/meson.build:

  dbus_broker = find_program('dbus-broker-launch',
                             required: false)
  if dbus_broker.found()
    launcher_args += '-DDBUS_BROKER="@0@"'.format(dbus_broker.path())
    needs_systemd = true
  endif

maybe find_program() should ignore programs outside of EPREFIX?

If Meson fails to find a dependency with pkgconfig, it tries with cmake. cmake is not a dependency of the package.

I think you're right.

Looks like we need to fix meson.build to not check for dbus-broker if default_bus == dbus-daemon.
