Package: dbus

In some cases, a unique and unchanging identification number for a
computer is not desired. dbus creates such a number in
/var/lib/dbus/machine-id. If the file is missing, it gets regenerated
at boot with a new number.

It would be good if this behavior could be configured to either keep a
consistent id number or change it at boot, according to the user's
need.
