Public bug reported:

Description:    Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release:        16.04

lxc:
  Installed: 2.0.1-0ubuntu1~16.04.1

Man ref:
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/lxc-copy.1.html

Problem:
The man package references '-B' and '--backingstorage' as aliases of one 
another, but when the following command is executed:

lxc-copy --name=cache --newname overlayfs1 --backingstorage overlay
--snapshot

The result is:
lxc-copy: unrecognized option '--backingstorage'

Expected result:
'--backingstorage' and '-B' should be aliases and both execute correctly

Existing workaround:
Use '-B' instead.

Steps to recreate:
lxc-create --name=cache --template=download -- --dist ubuntu --release trusty 
--arch amd64
lxc-copy --name=cache --newname overlayfs1 --backingstorage overlay --snapshot
