--- Comment #1 from Tijl Coosemans <tijl@FreeBSD.org> ---
We use /var/lib/dbus/machine-id.  Applications normally check both that and
/etc/machine-id.  The file is created at boot if you have dbus_enable=3D"YE=
S" in
/etc/rc.conf.  Ideally it would be created when you install the dbus packag=

The problem is that it should stay the same across package updates and beca=
use
update is currently implemented as delete+install that means the file canno=
t be
removed during package delete.  Our package testing framework then complains
that the file isn't removed properly.
