Perhaps. Given you are the first person in 8 years to complain about this (#438803) perhaps you have also an idea how as I have neither a SELinux setup nor know what you would deem acceptable. (truth be told, I don't even use that cron job, so I am not going to be available for review above very trivial changes and even that…) I guess we could use (pseudo code) "if systemd; then systemctl is-active dbus; else pidof dbus; fi" but that would really need someone to verify that this has the intended result (and is available in your setup).
