So my modus operandi is now always:
1. lxc-start
2. lxc-attach
3. dpkg -i *.deb (apt_1.0.9.7ubuntu4_amd64.deb libapt-inst1.5_1.0.9.7ubuntu4_amd64.deb python3-apt_0.9.3.11ubuntu1_amd64.deb apt-utils_1.0.9.7ubuntu4_amd64.deb  libapt-pkg4.12_1.0.9.7ubuntu4_amd64.deb python-apt_0.9.3.11ubuntu1_amd64.deb)
4. start using the container

  Downgrading apt to
