Ok, I just installed a maverick container. I think there is some tweaks 
to be done with the lxc-ubuntu template to configure correctly this 
ubuntu version. I will split again lxc-ubuntu to lxc-lucid and 
lxc-maverick, making lxc-ubuntu to point to lxc-maverick. This is what 
was done with the lxc-debian script (work still in progress).

Thanks for reporting this problem.
