--- Comment #8 from Wojciech A. Koszek <wkoszek@FreeBSD.org> ---
Is /var/lib where it's supposed to be? I put my file into /etc/machine-id to
make it work. Isn't this file something that would not change ever on the
machine?

Shouldn't this just be created at OS installation time in /etc/machine-id?
That, IMO, would be the correct fix that could solve your pkg install/uninstall
problem.

It appears like dbus is a hard requirement for X11 nowadays. I think during
xorg-server installation, the dbus_enable="YES" should be placed in
/etc/rc.conf or there should be some other forceable mechanism where user MUST
enable it to get xorg-server installed. Otherwise it looks very broken.
