The behavior of the test is perfectly correct.

This test depends on a CRIU version which can't be found in the Ubuntu
archive and criu itself isn't available on most architectures.

As mentioned in the other bug report, lxc-tests is meant to be used by
autopkgtest through our autopkgtest test script, not directly by manual
users.

Also note that the lxc-test-* binaries DO NOT clean after themselves on
failure which will cause subsequent failures.

Those binaries are there to be run by people who contribute to LXC and
so know precisely what they do when tracking down regressions and for
use by autopkgtest, not by normal users.

Title:
  lxc-test-checkpoint-restore can't run because no criu installed

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  on a default 15.10 installation, I have installed lxc-tests and am
  running through them individually.

  lxc-test-checkpoint-restore fails to run because the package criu is
  not installed

  ubuntu@xwing:~$ sudo lxc-test-checkpoint-restore
  /usr/bin/lxc-test-checkpoint-restore: 22: /usr/bin/lxc-test-checkpoint-restore: criu: not found
  SKIP: skipping test because no (or wrong) criu installed.

  installing lxc-tests should also install any test dependencies like
  criu.
