Hi folks,

I get a weird effect on running lxc-ls without root:

{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 507} lxc-ls
{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 508} echo $?
0
{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 509} lxc-ls -P /var/lib/lxc
.jessie                debbuild               template.blog
.mini                  lxc0
.squeeze               oraclient
.wheezy                p1
centos65               p2
{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 510} echo $?
0
{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 511} ls -l /var/lib/lxc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Aug  7  2014 /var/lib/lxc -> ../../export/lxc
{hdunkel at dpcl082:~ 512} ls -al /var/lib/../../export/lxc

drwxr-xr-x  3 root    root   4096 Oct 14 11:36 tmp


Please note that the "-P /var/lib/lxc" makes lxc-ls work,
even though its the default path. For root there is no
such problem.
