Yeah, problem is that it's blowing in the rpmbuild.  So something isn't
getting passed right in the spec file.

Looks like that line in the spec file should have been this...

%{_localstatedir}/lib/lxc

Instead of this (like I set it)...

/var/lib/lxc

And certainly not this...

/usr/local/var/lib/lxc

Not sure where the breakage was but I'm guess the line in lxc.spec.in at
line 65 is the culprit...

-- 
%{_libdir}/%{name}
@LXCPATH@
%{_localstatedir}/cache/lxc
-- 

Maybe should have been...

-- 
%{_libdir}/%{name}
%{_localstatedir}/var/lxc
%{_localstatedir}/cache/lxc
-- 

There may be a more appropriate macro for /var/lib but I'm not sure of
it.

My test system is running right now with the prealpha git code installed
from rpms I built from stage with those corrections.  I have F14, F15,
and F17 containers as well as CentOS 5 and 6 containers.  All seem
content.

Mike
