Hi Paul, This issue has nothing to do with APT, it's about a false timeout report (starting networking in a container never took more than a minute over here). I did not debug the problem, but it might have been related to checking the presence of /run/systemd/system too early, which has already been fixed on the Salsa master branch. I do not use the LXC backend nowadays, so feel free to close this issue if there are no independent reports of it. -- Thanks, Feri.
