require dbus for synctex work

On Void Linux, if I have dbus installed, synctex works fine. If I remove it, I get

$ zathura -x "/usr/bin/vim-x11 -T dumb --not-a-term -n -c \"VimtexInverseSearch %{line} '%{input}'\"" --synctex-forward 1:2:'/home/nicolo/Documents/drafts/Gamme/main.tex'  '/home/nicolo/Documents/drafts/Gamme/main.pdf'&
[1] 2576
$ error: Could not connect to session bus: Error spawning command line “dbus-launch --autolaunch=7818fdfca1741e84e1d89d015f666154 --binary-syntax --close-stderr”: Child process exited with code 1
error: Got no usable data from SyncTeX or D-Bus failed in some way.

Is dbus required for such functionality to work? see also #251

I believed that libsynctex would be enough, so zathura speaks to synctex directly, not through dbus: is this false?

Thanks.
