--- Comment #12 from Mateusz Piotrowski <0mp at FreeBSD.org> ---
Return the PR back to the pool.

I am not sure how this should be solved properly.

It feels like the most elegant way would be to remind users to start dbus
before starting firefox in pkg-message. Otherwise, if we decide to create the
machine-id file during installation, we end up in a situation where, e.g., a VM
image with preinstalled packages would have a hardcoded machine-id. Which in
turn creates even more edge cases.
