[lxc-devel] State of templates (wrt lxc-download)

[Stéphane Graber]

Hey everyone,

So I just did a few tests on a standard Ubuntu system, trying to create
a container for each distro that LXC supports, results are:

alpine              FAILED (signature validation failure)
altlinux            BROKEN (blows up in a few interesting ways)
archlinux           BROKEN (requires pacman)
centos              BUILDABLE (waiting on common config)
debian              DONE
fedora              BUILDABLE (waiting on common config)
gentoo              BUILDABLE (waiting on common config)
openmandriva        BROKEN (requires a mandriva host)
opensuse            BROKEN (requires zypper)
oracle              DONE
plamo               DONE
ubuntu              DONE

So in short, if the following templates switch to using config includes,
they'll easily be added to the daily builds for lxc-download:
 - centos
 - fedora
 - gentoo

alpine should also work but I'm not too sure what's happening, seems to
be some kind of gpg validation failure on the package manager itself.
I'll try to poke at it some more later.

The 4 others simply don't seem to work on a host that's running another
distro, so to add those to lxc-download, I'd first need to see them
converted to using config includes and once that's done, I'll need an
initial rootfs tarball so I can setup a build environment that's running
the right distro (one time thing as I'll just have it update from
lxc-download afterwards).
