`home-pipewire-service-type` has no option to skip dbus and thus far this 
system does not use dbus, ibus, elogind and systemd etc.

Interesting. Thanks for teaching me this.

The above does work :) thank you. I'm interested to explore writing a function 
that wraps g-exp behaviour to return a package as store path string and might 
do that outside of this ticket.

Thank you for your kind help and correspondence,
