Summary:                    dbus-1.0.1 fails to create /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
Description: 
According to the dbus docs, specifically NEWS, the init script for dbus,
namely /etc/init.d/messagebus is supposed to ensure the creation of a
valid machine-id file in /var/lib/dbus. The current init script for the
dbus module does NOT do this vital function. See the generated messagebus
init script from the dbus tarball (look in the file bus/messagebus.in)  I
added a call to POST_BUILD to ensure at least one time a valid
/var/lib/dbus/machine-id file is created, but someone who is more familar
with dbus needs to modifiy the init script to reflect the code that is
present in bus/messagebus.in as a good starting example.

I attempted to update the init.d/messagebus script to invoke dbus-uuidgen
--ensure as required by the dbus docs.  Someone who understands dbus and
lsb/init-functions better can make the necessary corrections to the dbus
module in moonbase
