I really can't answer your question but I've pinged one of my contacts
at SUSE, I know they don't follow these lists real closely.  It may take
a couple days for them to get back.

ITMT, what version of LXC do you have installed?  All those lxc* files
would have (should have) come from the LXC package.  The only non-lxc
file (loadall.so) is complaining about lxc.so not being there.  Looks
like LXC was not built with lua support to begin with.
