(soon!) finally making it into Debian proper. :) I am currently running
LXD as a snap, but it would just be so much nicer and cleaner to be
able to use the "real" packages for this.

  At this point in time we're just waiting on the package to make it
through the NEW queue -- nothing more to be done right now. Hopefully
it won't be too much longer, but I can't predict when that will be. If
it gets to be within a couple months of the bookworm freezes beginning,
I'll probably ping the ftpmasters to see if they could prioritize
looking at it, so that there would be sufficient time for LXD to be in
unstable and get some testing prior to transition freezes kicking in.

  Also, I've got the LXD 5.0.1 update staged locally, so once LXD
passes NEW there will be a pretty quick update to the latest LTS
version.
