[Bug 912842] [NEW] lxc-create fails on armel

[Robie Basak]

Public bug reported:

In /usr/lib/lxc/templates/lxc-ubuntu, lxc-create uses a mirror of
archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu in all cases, whereas armel (and some other
archs) need ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports.

Steps to reproduce:

cat > lxc.conf <<EOF
lxc.network.type=veth
lxc.network.link=test_network
lxc.network.flags=up
EOF

lxc-create -n test_container -t ubuntu -f lxc.conf -- -r oneiric

Expected behaviour:

This should succeed

Actual behaviour: attached

Suggested fix:

<hallyn> i guess we'll need to special-case line 112 in lxc-ubuntu for
armel

Note that debootstrap already special cases architectures, for example
see the top of /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/oneiric
