  Interesting, didn't know that. They mentioned logs like bootstrap.log and dpkg.log, which I noticed, but looking at my shell scripts now there is also nondeterminism/host influence in: etc/resolv.conf var/cache/ldconfig/aux-cache var/lib/urandom/random-seed etc/init.d/.depend.{stop,start,boot} etc/shadow etc/passwd- and family (with trailing hyphen) etc/apt/trustdb.gpg and other keys (not exhaustive)
