I'm fully aware that the LXC driver is not supported by SUSE and that I have you to thank for any patches that get applied regardless. This is also why I don't mind to spend some time to fix issues and actually submit a patch.
Thanks for that!
As to the why "libvirt-lxc": I've worked with libvirt my entire professional life to run vms. So it's tech that I know (that's why libvirt). For situations where an entire vm is a bit overkill I prefer to use containers. The fact I can use the same cli and ui tools for both my vms and containers is extremely appealing.
Right, one of the main benefits of libvirt. Okay, I'll leave the lxc driver enabled with the caveat that user community is also the maintainers of the driver :-). I'll encourage bug reporters to pursue a fix upstream, at which point I'm happy to integrate in the downstream package.
Is there another libvirt container driver that would be more or less a drop in replacement for LXC? I see a few others listed, but I'm not familiar with them and apparently can't assume they're actively maintained.
lxc is the only container driver for libvirt.
Sorry for not replying earlier, I've been crazy busy. I don't mind doing some maintenance for the software I use. I will try to fix the issue in this report as soon I can, but since there are a couple of workarounds, it's not on the top of my todo list at this time. Is there anyone in particular you think I could bother if I have questions about implementation details? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
