tar: unrecognized option ''--numeric-uid''

[Nicola Larosa]

While running in a Saucy KVM with a local environment deploying to LXC containers, running the command:

$ juju deploy --repository=. --config=openstack.cfg -n 2 local:ceph

using revno 65 of lp:charms/ceph , and then running "juju status" generates the following error (same output with Juju 1.15.1):
