I agree with that reasoning. It's fine for D-Bus to be responsible for creating its own older machine ID file if necessary, but it shouldn't be responsible for creating the one that belongs to systemd - that's systemd's job. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dbus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1508697 Title: dbus-uuidgen --ensure: Symlink instead of copy existing /etc/machine- id Status in dbus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: If you do a Wily desktop install, /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is a symlink to /etc/machine-id. If you do a Wily server install, /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is a file containing the same value as /etc/machine-id. Minor issue, but still a weird inconsistency between Ubuntu desktop and server.
