Package: lxc
Version: 1:1.0.6-6+deb8u2

Dear Maintainers,

On Debian Jessie 8.5 running LXC, i am trying to replace command options (for logfile management) on lxc-start by configuration file as defined in man lxc.conf.

My kernel release is :

admlocal@syspeo:~$ uname -a
Linux syspeo 4.5.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.5.1-1~bpo8+1 (2016-04-20) x86_64 GNU/Linux

The correct command running without error is :

sudo lxc-start --name vm-template --rcfile /etc/lxc/auto/vm-template --logpriority=DEBUG --logfile=/var/log/lxc/vm-template.log

With this command, logfile is created in /var/log/lxc/vm-template.log and verbosity is correct with DEBUG severity

But when setting .....

lxc.loglevel             = DEBUG
lxc.logfile              = /var/log/lxc/vm-template.log

in config file in /etc/lxc/auto/vm-template, and running command :

sudo lxc-start --name vm-template --rcfile /etc/lxc/auto/vm-template

With this configuration, logfile is not created in location defined by lxc.logfile parameter.

Perhaps a merge with https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806699 ???

Please note that with lxc backports on jessie (1:2.0.0-3~bpo8+1), behaviour is correct.

Thanks in advance for your help
