Package: lxc
Version: 1:2.0.7-2+deb9u2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Setup an arm64 machine to run within a distributed system of multiple devices
which all need to use LXC.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Expected to be able to setup a native LXC on arm64 Stretch without extra options.
lxc-create -t debian -n server-unittests -- --release stretch --mirror http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/

   * What was the outcome of this action?

lxc-create: lxccontainer.c: create_run_template: 1297 container creation template for server-unittests failed

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

https://sources.debian.org/src/lxc/1:2.0.7-2+deb9u2/templates/lxc-debian.in/#L542 lacks a mapping from
aarch64 to arm64 which is present in https://sources.debian.org/src/lxc/1:2.0.9-6/templates/lxc-debian.in/#L538

As this is a bug in LXC, please can an upload be arranged to update this template in Stretch?

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***
