Now, the http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/machine-id.html does not specify anywhere that the /etc/machine-id and /var/lib/dbus/machine-id must correspond to each other. So, it is a kind of mistake if a software relies on them being identical. The software normally should assume that they can be different and handle that case graciously.
Might be true. But where is the reason to create two files with different value in the system? I think your suggestion to create the second file only if the first one is not found is the method of choice. Nevertheless a check for same value is advised. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
