[Bug 1263738] [NEW] login console 0 in user namespace container is not configured right

 

Public bug reported:

When you create a container in a private user namespace, when you start the
container without the '-d' flag, that console is not properly set up.  Logging in
gives you

-bash: no job control in this shell

and hitting ctrl-c reboots the container.

Consoles from 'lxc-console -n $container' behave correctly.

This may be a kernel issue, as discussed here:

http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc-
devel/2013-October/005843.html

so also marking this as affecting the kernel.

This can be worked around, but really needs to be fixed before trusty is
frozen.
