Title:
  Cloud-init does not initialize systemd machine id

Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Systemd uses /etc/machine-id file to uniquely identify the machine and
  to provide machine ID to D-Bus. This file is generated with `systemd-
  machine-id-setup` command that should be run on system installation
  (or at least when a system is provisioned). However, cloud-init does
  not do this.

  As far as I can see, all Wily Werewolf VMs provisioned in EC2 have the
  same machine-id ff1bed6402c14c57ac03a074cdb7479e.
