Which lxc version is required for that? I'm on lxc 1.0.5-0ubuntu0.1
from trusty-updates, and that does not work out of the box

After poking around a bit I see that /etc/init/lxc-net.conf has this line.

env LXC_DHCP_CONFILE=""

changing that to have /etc/lxc/dnsmasq.conf works, but I'm guessing
users aren't suppose to edit their init scripts manually, and the
feature is automatically available on later versions of lxc?
