This is because the Ubuntu packages restart the system bus during
upgrades; if the packages stop doing that, this bug vanishes.  I think
the right thing is just to delete #DEBHELPER# from the dbus-1.postinst
file.

I feel partly to blame here because I created the initial Debian
packages, and I didn't understand the issues then.  Fedora has also had
this bug forever, we discussed the problem but it looks like it wasn't
fixed.  So I just filed:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=162541
