** Description changed:

+ ======================
+ SRU Justification:
+ 1. Impact: lxc-clone can produce non-functional containers
+ 2. Development fix: fix lxc-clone's handling of updates to lxc.mount entries.
+ 3. Stable fix: same as development fix
+ 4. Test case:
+    lxc-create -t ubuntu -n c1
+    sudo sed -i 's/lxc.mount =/lxc.mount   =/' /var/lib/lxc/c1/config
+    sudo lxc-clone -o c1 -n c2
+    grep fstab /var/lib/lxc/c2/config
+ 5. Regression potential: only lxc-clone is updated, so regressions would be
+    contained in lxc-clone and in the code which is already broken for updating
+    lxc.mount.
+ ======================
+ 
  Rene K. Mueller reports that when an original container does not have an
  fstab, lxc-clone still adds a 'lxc.mount = ..../fstab' line, breaking
  container start.
