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.

Thanks a lot.
