[Bug 1475751] Re: need phablet support for mods to /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet (vivid+stable ppa overaly)

 

Having a special username hardcoded in there seems wrong to me.
Eventually we will want to do proper multi-user on those devices or allow users to rename the user at which point everything will break again.

What we may consider though is having LXC setup a new lxc-net group with
a matching group entry in /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet so that any member of
that group gets 10 veth in lxcbr0.

For that we'll need LXC 2.0 as I don't believe the lxc-usernet group
support existed back in 1.1.
