/etc/machine-id is independent from dbus, here how generate FreeBSD:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/main/libexec/rc/rc.d/hostid_save

The dbus generated id is just a fallback in the mega sdk, if
/etc/machine-id doesn’t exist.
I transformed the MESSAGE file to a README file with this information.

Yes, the MEGA company is the upstream for megacmd. I think their
business isn’t targeted to the BSDs.
 I follow the pull requests and update the patches if needed, but they
are silent.

Changes pushed to pkgsrc-wip.
