  #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN

  removing resolvconf installation from lxc-ubuntu fix it

  =============================================
  SRU Justification:
  1. Impact: Newly created containers are unable to use the network.
  2. Development fix: remove resolvconf from the list of packages to install when creating an oneiric container.
  3. Stable fix: same as development fix.
  4. Test case: create a container, start it, try to access the network.
  5. Regression potential: we only stop installing resolvconf by default, which is not a package we want by default anyway.
