Hi LXC folks,
from my bug report against udev, so that it doesn't try to start when
running in a non-root container:

from a quick glance, it looks like running udev in a linux

check similar to is_chrooted in its postinst to decide whether to
start the daemon.
No objections, but please come back with a detection method which is
sanctioned by the LXC people.
Could you please advise on the best way to detect running in a
non-root container? It looks like grepping /proc/1/cgroup for :/$
could be a way to determine that (as opposed to :/foo$ in a "foo"
container). Can you please confirm?
I would not rely on that because lxc may evolve to not use the cgroup if
not present.
If you use upstart, you can check the 'container=lxc' env variable in
the udev init script in order to know if you are in a container.
Otherwise for sysvrc init, I don't know how to handle that.
Thanks
