Bug Description

lxc-ps looks at /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/lxc/$container/tasks to get a list of tasks in the container. However, in the face of either failed previous container startups, or multiple containers with theh same name in differnet lxcpaths, the container's cgroup could be /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/lxc/${container}-N/ (N being an ascending integer)

A proposed fix has been sent to the mailing list. I'm not sure whether we'll go with that patch, or re-write lxc-ps.

This landed upstream in May 2013 and from what I see is fixed in raring and therefore also saucy. Closing this out.
