Well, I think you're being a bit too picky here. It is indeed nicer
when the information is more specific, but since there is a clear
autobuilder failure, I think Yegor's commit log is good enough. Better
is better, for sure :-)

While I do agree that separating logical changes into separate commits
is important, we shouldn't be too zealous about that either. So I'm
personally fine with such small (but related) side changes. It's better
when the commit log contains something such as:

While at it, group the existing dbus select together with the dbus-glib
select, so that all "select" statements are together.

Best regards,

Thomas
