What about Python 2 support? What provides it?

To me, it looks like OpenStack's Nova uses lxc through libvirt only.
There's also lxd support, but this isn't available in Debian. As I've
read the thread about it, I'm waiting on others to do the work, but I'd
be happy to give a hand if needed.

Cheers,
