A typical usage is to start lxc-monitor in popen() and parse the ouput.
Unfortunately, glibc defaults to block buffering for pipes and you may
have to wait several lines before anything is written to stdout... this
prevent the use of lxc-monitor to implement automatons. Let's go line
buffered !

Particularly for LTS releases, which many people will want to use in
their containers, it is not wise to not use release-security and
release-updates. Furthermore the fix allowing ssh to allow the container
to shut down is in lucid-updates only.
With this patch, after debootstrapping a container, we add -updates and
-security to sources.list and do an upgrade under chroot. Unfortunately
we need to do this because debootstrap doesn't know how to.
Changelog:
Nov 14: as Stéphane Graber suggested, make sure no daemons start on
the host while doing dist-upgrade from chroot.
Nov 15: use security.ubuntu.com, not mirror. (stgraber)

When used in conjunction with a bridge, veth devices with random addresses
may change the mac address of the bridge itself if the mac address of the
interface newly added is numerically lower than the previous mac address
of the bridge. This is documented kernel behavior. To avoid changing the
host's mac address back and forth when starting and/or stopping containers,
this patch ensures that the high byte of the mac address of the veth
interface visible from the host side is set to 0xfe.
A similar logic is also implemented in libvirt.
Fixes SF bug #3411497

This patch allows to create application containers with liblxc.so directly.
Some code cleanups on the way:
- separate ops for lxc_execute() and lxc_start(): the factorisation is wrong
here as we may have specific things to do if we're running an application
container. It deserves separate ops.
- lxc_arguments_dup() is merged in the pre-exec operation: this is a first
use for the execute op introduced just above. It's better to build the
arguments to execvp() where they're really used.

The lxc-ls shell script uses netstat -xa to get a listing of AF_UNIX
sockets it then parses in order to determine the names of presently
running containers. This is wrong because it will list the
listening socket and all sockets created by accepting connections on
that. This causes the script to display the names of containers with
active lxc-console sessions 1 + n times, n being the number of active
console sessions. The patch below fixes this by using netstat -xl
instead which only displays the listening sockets.

We think it's better for now to only warn the user about a fd leaking into
the container. Also remove the call to readlink() as it isn't really useful
now: since the container will start anyway, the user can look into /proc/../fd
or use lsof or whatever.

This patch fixes some makefile/specfile issues when running
rpmbuild with the distributed lxc specfile:
- fixes usage of installation directories for config files,
rootfs, templates and lxc-init so that they're calculated
at make time instead of configure time. Thanks to this,
all installed items go under $RPM_BUILD_ROOT when running
rpmbuild
- introduce --disable-rpath option to configure to avoid
check-rpaths errors when building non-root.
- introduce a lxc-libs package in the default spec file
to allow concurrent installation of 32 bit and 64 bit
libraries.
v2: - fix circular reference in lxc.pc
- ship lxc.pc with lxc-devel
