I think most Debian users want Debian LXC containers. This is not possible in the upcoming Wheezy release. So yes, i think this bug severely cripples LXC. Already contacted its maintainer about this, but i had the impression that he had tried but could do nothing about the situation. Also put a request on the release mailing list to temporarily un-freeze LXC so the fix could be in Wheezy (Got no reply there). > Alternatively, a paragraph could be added to the wheeze release notes. Most users will try LXC a long time after they installed Wheezy when they have forgotten about the release notes (if they had read the release notes at all). So a release note will not solve the problem. People expect that programs that are in a Debian release are tested and functioning. I think its bad to ship LXC in the state that it is currently in. Solve the problem or remove LXC from Wheezy, do not let users wondering why LXC does not work on their machine.
