You don't need to be able to cd into any of those paths for normal operation of lxcfs.
It'd certainly be nice if it was behaving a bit more like a normal filesystem but it's not really that important.

When I need to find a file on the system, I usually do a:

find / -name lts.conf

With the lxcfs installed, I get a lot of errors when it tries to search thru that directory structure.

BTW, I run sudo bash before I run the find.

Take care and God Bless,

Jeff

fwiw until this is fixed upstream, the workaround is 'find /
someregexp 2>/dev/null'

Thanks. I would not have figured that expression out. That one is over my limited knowledge.

Take care and God Bless,

This has now been fixed upstream.

[Evgeni Golov (evgeni)]

This is fixed since lxcfs 2.0.4
