For reference, to reproduce this, launch an instance of saucy with this
user-data:
#cloud-config
system_info:
default_user:
name: smoser
ssh into instance, then add a 'ubuntu' user. That new ubuntu user
should get uid '1001' (anything other than 1000 is needed to show the
problem).
Then,
$ id -u; whoami
1000
smoser
$ id -u ubuntu
1001
$ sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n precise-source -- --release=precise
$ sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n lucid-source -- --release=lucid
# verify the home dir has correct ownership wrt the /etc/passwd inside
the image
$ ls --numeric-uid-gid -d /var/lib/lxc/precise-source/rootfs/home/ubuntu
