[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#566180: libvirt-bin: virsh can define lxc domain but does not list nor properly start it

[banerian]

Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.7.2-3
Severity: normal


An LXC container was created, and can be started/stopped, and access with the
regular lxc tools.  An xml file for the container was created, using examples 
from, e.g. 
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2008-September/013329.html

virsh --connect lxc:/// define  lxccontainer.xml  

properly creates (and assigns uuid) /etc/libvirt/lxc/lxccontainer.xml

virsh list --all does not list the domain

virst --connect lxc:/// start lxccontainer    claims it starts the container, 
but does not
and lxc-info  reports the container as "STOPPED"
