If that's the root cause, then the work-around to ignore test-suite failures on mipsel is not really sufficient. After all, we could have build chroots on other archs as well without /etc/machine-id. Maybe we should simply revert d2446397043931d22a3411025c8102d8140f813c. The presence of the init metapackage doesn't guarantee that we have /etc/machine-id. The alternative is, to poke all buildd maintainers and have their build chroots updated to use systemd-sysv instead of sysvinit-core. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
