[lxc-users] Something changed between 1.1.2 and 1.1.4 for unprivileged containers?

Hi Tycho,

not lxd, it's plain lxc from linuxcontainers.org and compiled the
same way as 1.1.2. To start I use as part of init-script, started
by root:

    /usr/local/bin/cgm create all ${CONTAINER}
    /usr/local/bin/cgm chown all ${CONTAINER} `id -u $user` `id -g $user` 
    su - $user -c /usr/local/sbin/${CONTAINER}

where the last line starts a shell script with the uid of the
unprivileged user. Here all I do is:

   /usr/local/bin/cgm movepid all ${CONTAINER} $$
   lxc-start -n ${CONTAINER} -d 

So I move the user shell to the cgroups and start the container.
That works fine with 1.1.2, but not with 1.1.4...

Best regards

Dirk
