Hmm, if we want this to happen then several other packages also look like they need to be fixed:

When did these files move from /etc/ to /usr/share? In D-Bus 1.8.x?

Applied to master after improving the commit log. As Peter Korsgaard said, a number of other packages still install their D-Bus files in /etc. Could you look at fixing those as well ?
Thanks!
