Title:
  lxc-attach --clear-env results in a limited $PATH in the container

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Here is the problem in more details:

   # Clearing the env
   $ printf 'echo $PATH\n' | sudo lxc-attach --clear-env -n p1
   /bin:/usr/bin

   # Keeping the env
   $ printf 'echo $PATH\n' | sudo lxc-attach --keep-env -n p1
   /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

  While keeping the env seems like a good workaround it cause other
  undesirable effects like preserving $HOME that doesn't (always) exist
  in the container.

  Additional information:

  $ apt-cache policy lxc
