Bug Description

Error reporting for container issues is pretty much non-existent.

Issues such as why an LXC won't start is not being reported. Some of this is due to the LXC Python API not providing any sort of error reporting (see bug #1542438).

However, we should be better than we are now in error reporting.

  * Work around sudo issue where $PATH is not preserved even though the -E
    (preserve environment) option is used.
  * Fix the click hook script such that it checks if the json file exists first.
    Also had to change from using scandir() to listdir() since scandir() is not
    in the Vivid version of Python.
