With a version > 0.6.4 the lxc-debian script write the rootfs in the 
/var/lib/lxc/debian/rootfs.
With a version <= 0.6.4 the rootfs is created in the current directory.

Note if you have the source code from git, I incremented the version 
right before the tag 0.6.5, so you may have a pre-0.6.5 but with the 
0.6.4 version information.
