In some cases it may be useful to pass a full path to an executable
template script directly to lxc-create.

The package 'docbook-tools' [1] required to format Docbook 3.0 into man pages
has been obsoleted a long time ago and can no longer be downloaded from its
former homepage. Recent versions of that package -- now called 'docbook2X' --,
cannot deal with that old markup format anymore (and don't support the '-w all'
command line switch either). To remedy these issues, all SGML files have been
updated to Docbook 4.5 so that recent versions of docbook2man can process them.

Make 'dir' an explicit backing store type, which accepts '--dir rootfs'
as an option to specify a custom location for the container rootfs. Also
update lxc-destroy to now remove the rootfs separately, as removing
@LXCPATH@/$name may not hit it.

I was getting raw nroff ".SH DESCRIPTION" in my man pages. This fixes
the synopsis cmd args so that doesn't happen. Added replaceable to a few
arguments.

Consolidate lucid, maverick, natty, and oneiric templates into one 'ubuntu'
template.
Add support for specifying architecture.
Add support for '--trim|-x' option, which removes services like the lucid
template used to. This creates smaller, faster-booting containers, but they
will not be safe with certain upgrades, like mountall or udev. When -x is
not specified for lucid or maverick container, then install lxcguest from
the ubuntu-virt ppa, since it does not exist in the official archives, and
the container is not safe to boot without lxcguest.
Add support for '--bindhome <user>' option, which will cause /home/<user>
to be bind-mounted into the container, and create the user with his
original password, shell, and group memberships in the container.
changelog:
june 23:
lxc-ubuntu template: set lxc.arch in config
install lxcguest when NOT trimming the container
lxc-ubuntu: always install lxcguest in postprocess

Rename 'ubuntu' template to 'lucid'
Add new maverick and natty templates, which do much less tweaking
of the environment. These should only be used on a kernel which
supports sysfs tagging for /sys/class/net, as udev will be running
in the container.
The natty template needed to slightly change the installed packages
for dhclient to be correclty installed.

Added the different man pages for the lxc commands. The generation of the
man pages relies on the docbook tool.
