[lxc-users] UID > 65535 is not correctly mapped

[Matlink]

Hello community,

I wanted to use GUI apps in my containers, I followed the great howto
here
https://blog.simos.info/how-to-run-graphics-accelerated-gui-apps-in-lxd-containers-on-your-ubuntu-desktop/

However, on my system, it happens that my uid is greater than 65535:

    $ id -u $USER
    119373

When using

    lxc config set guiapps raw.idmap "uid $UID 1000"

in the container, the mapped id is 19737, like for .Xauthority :

    $ ls -la /home/ubuntu/.Xauthority
    -rw------- 1 19373 ubuntu 67 Jun 14 07:46 /home/ubuntu/.Xauthority

Has anyone ever experienced something similar?
