Public bug reported:

Running the integration tests using the lxd backend fails when lxd is installed as a snap:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/26465769/

The failure is a result of the
tests/cloud_tests/platforms/lxd.py:_setup_console_log() function
attempting to modify the configuration:

49         cfg = "lxc.console.logfile=%s" % logf
50         orig = self._pylxd_container.config.get('raw.lxc', "")
51         if orig:
52             orig += "\n"
53         self._pylxd_container.config['raw.lxc'] = orig + cfg

LXD logs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26465860/
My lxd setup/config: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26465838/

The specific issue I believe is that LXD as a snap is confined and does
not have access to /tmp (need to confirm this) hence the error message:

console.c:lxc_console_create:561 - No such file or directory - failed to
open console log file "/tmp/LXDInstance-cloud-test-ubuntu-xenial-image-
modification-em88d5kzvxzdrzsgod029n8iztb/console.log"
