Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libuuid1

Any packages like libvolumeid0 (see below) that depend on libuuid1 for
/usr/bin/uuidgen will fail to install if e2fsprogs is not installed
because uuidgen is really in e2fsprogs, not libuuid1. Obviously these
packages should depend on e2fsprogs instead and presumably e2fsprogs in
turn depends on libuuid1.

Example of apt-get output follows

Setting up libvolumeid0 (093-0ubuntu5) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libvolumeid0.postinst: 158: uuidgen: not found
dpkg: error processing libvolumeid0 (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127

** Affects: e2fsprogs (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
