Indeed, openssh keys as well as udev fpostinst creates
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules which hardcodes MAC
addresses. Maybe some other packages are as well affected.

Jonas and I discussed this problem and we had some random ideas. We
discussed on allowing preinst and postinst in two stages, one stage
being a 'generic' way and the other a 'unique' way.

So basically preinst/postinst would only run generic part when image
is generated and the unique part would be executed once the image
boots in the final device.

Best regards,
