[lxc-users] lxd_2.0.0~beta4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04.1~ppa1_amd64.deb failed to update

[Michel Dubé]

Hi!

I launched these updates this morning on a test server:

lxd_2.0.0~beta4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04.1~ppa1_amd64.deb
lxd-client_2.0.0~beta4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04.1~ppa1_amd64.deb

lxd-client passed but lxd failed.

Here are the first error message I got:

So I downloaded the ded package and tried to install it manually.  Here's
what I got:

After many many tries with dependancies, I got everything up and running.
Luckily for me this happened on a test server.

Thanks to all the team for the excellent work you do!
