[Bug 1066084] [NEW] Permissions mangled when creating rootfs from cloud images

[David Britton]

Public bug reported:

Permissions on the created lxc container somehow are reflecting the
users /etc/password file:

ubuntu at dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ cat /etc/passwd |grep landscape
landscape:x:104:109::/var/lib/landscape:/bin/false
ubuntu at dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ ll /etc/landscape
total 12
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Oct 12 17:48 ./
drwxr-xr-x 86 root root 4096 Oct 12 17:47 ../
-rw-------  1  999 root  164 Oct 12 17:48 client.conf
ubuntu at dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ logout
Connection to 10.0.3.143 closed.

dpb at starbuck:dpb-local$ cat /etc/passwd |grep landscape
landscape:x:999:999::/var/lib/landscape:/bin/false
dpb at starbuck:dpb-local$

My hunch is where the tar happens from the mount of the downloaded image
in lxc/templates/lxc-ubuntu-cloud
