Of course I remember. That was about extending the -P option. This thread is about changing the lxcpath config option, keeping -P as it is. The difference is: Some "wrapper" functionality could loop over all lxc config dirs, to run an "lxc-* -P /somdir" command either for all affected containers (e.g. to start or stop a set of containers), or for the first container with a matching name. AFAICS this would have a much smaller impact on the lxc-* commands, making it more easy to implement (hopefully). Probably I do not see all problems of this approach yet, so I started a sample implemen- tation (a bash wrapper script).
