Files from packages not in the base system: 
- /usr/bin/ftp and /usr/bin/telnet (from netstd, they should be moved to
  netbase)
- /usr/lib/perl5/Net/DirHandle.pm (from perl, it should be moved to
  perl-base)

Data files:
- /var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/dpkg/available (dpkg won't run
  without those).

Files needed by the install process, and removed after the first root 
session (after dselect first run):
- /sbin/unconfigured.sh
- various files under /root  

A lot of device files under /dev .

And of course all the files created by the packages postinst scripts.
