Having a special username hardcoded in there seems wrong to me. Eventually we will want to do proper multi-user on those devices or allow users to rename the user at which point everything will break again.
What we may consider though is having LXC setup a new lxc-net group with a matching group entry in /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet so that any member of that group gets 10 veth in lxcbr0. For that we'll need LXC 2.0 as I don't believe the lxc-usernet group support existed back in 1.1. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1475751 Title: need phablet support for mods to /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet (vivid+stable ppa overaly) Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: we have a need for phablet to use a network inside a container, currently the /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet file is readonly would need to be modified to contain something like phablet veth lxcbr0 10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1475751/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
