Sorry for that. I almost Cc you, but I was not really sure about what kind of "overrides" does piuparts have in place, or whether you would be willing to make an exception in this case. This file, /etc/machine-id, could be described as * A system file * which is handled by a package which is not essential now * but will be essential de-facto in jessie (if not just essential) * but it will not be essential de-facto in every architecture. Odd properties would make it a good candidate for base-files, and even properties would not, so, I'm glad that you decided to make a piuparts exception for such kind of files.
