>/the subsequent rm -rf $rootfs/
Serge,
Could you elaborate on this? The lxc-destroy is not supposed to rm
-rf the root filesystem, is it?
What if I had data in there I wanted to copy to a new LXC rootfs
I'm building?
Unless I have misunderstood something, doing an rm -rf is a
horrible idea. Virt-Manager and VirtualBox do not remove your .vmdk
disk image when you "destroy" a virtual machine.

I don't get why this is needed, lxc-stop is synchronous. When the
lxc-stop command exits, we have the guarantee the container has
stopped. If it is not the case, that means there is a problem
somewhere else.
Some of the filesystems may not yet have been auto-umounted when the
namespaces were cleaned up, causing the subsequent rm -rf $rootfs to
fail.
