Hello !

Context: we want to create a lxc with the lxc-debian template on a bookworm server without any access to internet.

We identified following bug preventing to achieve our goal and had to edit the /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-debian to succeed.

Description:

The wget line 829 does not use the $MIRROR variable but the hardcoded debian repository. This check, newly implemented cannot be escaped and last the default wget timeout when device does not have internet access, which is SOOOOOOOOOO long: 900s!!!!!

Solution may be to set it to 10s, adding a switch to disable the public check or check against the $MIRROR variable.

Regards

Eppii
