[Bug 936981] Re: apt-get dist-upgrade fails to upgrade udev in lxc container

Could it be that this container already had a udev upgrade failure in
the past, likely caused by the bind mounts we used to have in /dev?

Running "dpkg --configure -a" and then "apt-get dist-upgrade" will most
likely fix your container though (if you didn't do it already).

I'm also subscribing Serge as this might also have been caused by
apparmor.
