Hi,

The "filesystem" package is part of a centos base installation and is 
uninstallable in an lxc container (see pasted output below) due to lacking 
access rights to /sys ... I'm not sure that this is even crucial, as the 
container seems to work just fine, but downstream installations fail and I 
want to exclude that it may be traceable to this ...

So: how may this be circumventable? Should I be posting this on a centos 
list?

Thanks for any hints.

Sincerely, Joh
