[lxc-devel] lxc-fedora fixes

[Justin Albstmeijer]

Just tested the git version of today.
Some of the issues still seem to be there..


building rpm package as non root does not work, as it tries to create
'/var/lib/lxc'

 /usr/bin/install -c 'lxc-checkconfig'
'/home/user/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/lxc-0.6.2.240609-1.x86_64/usr/bin/lxc-checkconfig'
 /usr/bin/install -c 'lxc-setcap'
'/home/user/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/lxc-0.6.2.240609-1.x86_64/usr/bin/lxc-setcap'
 /usr/bin/install -c 'lxc-version'
'/home/user/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/lxc-0.6.2.240609-1.x86_64/usr/bin/lxc-version'
