If I want to do something like that (i.e. when bootstrapping custom linux system as LXC guest), I just chroot into newly-created container root and do the "apt-get install ...".
This method uses host's network connection, but it requires container's /etc/resolv.conf correctly configured. Also, if you are using subuid/gids, pay attention when you do this procedure (generally before uidmapshift step). b.
