Package: libuuid1
Version: 2.20.1-5.6
Severity: wishlist

libuuid1 has to drag around a daemon, a state directory, and a system
user in order to support the thoroughly obsolete notion of time-based
UUIDs, which are only ever generated as a fallback in the absence of
/dev/urandom, which will never happen on a modern system.  Please just
rip all of that out.
