Public bug reported:

Please backport lxc 1.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu13 (main) from saucy-updates to
precise, quantal, raring.

Reason for the backport:
========================
We like to offer recent versions of LXC on all supported releases. We
currently have a backported version of quantal's LXC in precise which is
quite dated and so we'd like that (and any other relevant series) to be
updated to saucy's LXC.

Our plan is for 1.0 final to ship in 14.04 and then have that one
backported to all past releases and then kept in sync (no more major
version bump in *-backports after 1.0 is released).

LXC upstream maintains a daily PPA based on the Ubuntu packaging which
builds for all supported releases, we therefore know that LXC will build
fine on precise, quantal and raring and that it'll work fine since we
already have quite a few users doing that through our PPA.

Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.

You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s saucy -d precise lxc
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s saucy -d quantal lxc
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s saucy -d raring lxc

* precise:
[X] Package builds without modification
[X] lxc-dbg installs cleanly and runs
[X] liblxc0 installs cleanly and runs
[X] lxc-templates installs cleanly and runs
[X] lxc-dev installs cleanly and runs
[X] python3-lxc installs cleanly and runs
[X] lxc installs cleanly and runs
* quantal:

[X] liblxc0 installs cleanly and runs

[X] lxc installs cleanly and runs
* raring:

[X] lxc installs cleanly and runs

Reverse dependencies:
=====================
The following reverse-dependencies need to be tested against the new version of lxc. For reverse-build-dependencies (-Indep), please test that the package still builds against the new lxc. For reverse-dependencies, please test that the version of the package currently in the release still works with the new lxc installed. Reverse- Recommends, Suggests, and Enhances don't need to be tested, and are listed for completeness-sake.
