Dear Maintainer,

I have tried to create Debian container with following command:

sudo lxc-create -n debian -t debian

It was working just fine until I changed my current directory to /var/lib/lxc.
Here is the output:

denys@pc-deg:/var/lib/lxc$ sudo lxc-create -n debian -t debian

lxc-create: No config file specified, using the default config /etc/lxc/lxc.conf
sha1sum: debian: Is a directory
/usr/bin/lxc-create: 328: /usr/bin/lxc-create: debian: not found
lxc-create: failed to execute template 'debian'
lxc-create: aborted
denys@pc-deg:/var/lib/lxc$

It seems that lxc-create script considers newly created container directory as 
template.
I've added additional check to the script and the problem has gone:
