Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: finch

I installed finch on jeos
<http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/jeos>.  When
trying to run it, the following message corrupts its display:

process 30393: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read 
machine uuid: Failed to open "/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or 
directory
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.

The following message then appears every few seconds:

libnm_glib_dbus_init: error, org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound raised:
 Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or 
directory

All of the above messages appear on stderr so they can be silenced with
finch 2>/dev/null

Installing the dbus package reduces the problem to single message on
startup that does not corrupt its display:

libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error.
  (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name 
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files
