[Lxc-users] Upgrading udev and plymouth in a lucid container

[Elliot Pahl]

Upgrading udev and plymouth in a lucid container seems to require access to
udev devices with the following lines in <container>/config
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 108:0 rwm
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = b 7:0 rwm
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 10:200 rwm

Otherwise you get something along the lines of:
Setting up udev (151-12.3) ...
mknod: `/lib/udev/devices/ppp': Operation not permitted
dpkg: error processing udev (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of plymouth:
 plymouth depends on udev (>= 149-2); however:
  Package udev is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing plymouth (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup
error from a previous failure.
Errors were encountered while processing:
 udev
 plymouth
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Can this be added to the ubuntu creation template? (I'm running lxc daily
from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lxc/+archive/daily).
