Icons are all OK now. Yeah!

Now only two messages are being generated ...

address@hidden ~$ emacs
process 27189: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly
set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/etc/machine-id":
No such file or directory See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to
correct this issue.

** (emacs-25-3:27189): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus
address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Attempting to follow the instructions in the first message, I installed
dbus, but I don't see any dbus-uuidgen man page, or any other dbus man
pages.

The second message is referenced in bug#28088 ...

Subject: bug#28088: "The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any
.service files" with multiple applications

The messages seem harmless. Perhaps the bug should be downgraded?
