[Lxc-users] lxc_cgroup start error

[Christoph Mitasch]

thanks for the fix.

I tried multiple times with the new package. After approx. 10 tries I got the same error again.

If you're running Ubuntu precise (12.04) or quantal (12.10), I've pushed
a proposed fix to ppa:ubuntu-virt/ppa.  It should build soon, then you
can

	sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-virt/ppa
	sudo apt-get update
	sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and you should have the new version.  If you still get the error with
that package, then (a) I won't push my fix upstream, and (b) I don't
know what the problem is :)

thanks,
