+        LXC consoles are provided through Unix98 PTYs created on the

+	By default, they are bind-mounted over <filename>/dev/console</filename>
+	and <filename>/dev/ttyN</filename>.  This can prevent package upgrades
+	in the guest.  Therefore you can specify a directory location (under
+	<filename>/dev</filename> under which LXC will create the files and
+	bind-mount over them.  These will then be symbolically linked to
+	<filename>/dev/console</filename> and <filename>/dev/ttyN</filename>.
+	A package upgrade can then succeed as it is able to remove and replace
+	the symbolic links.
