New upstream bugfix release 1.0.6 (LXC MRE)

[Stéphane Graber]

We have released LXC 1.0.6 upstream: https://linuxcontainers.org/news

This will be the third upstream bugfix release to hit trusty. The upstream changes are detailed at the URL above.

The MRE was reviewed by Martin Pitt here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2014-April/001869.html

As for testing, this version went through both automated testing (all the tests present in lxc-tests + the python3 API tests) as well as manual testing done by myself, LXC contributors and LXC users who've been building the git stable branch for a while now.

Utopic is now on the LXC 1.1 alpha branch which bugfixes for 1.0.6 have been taken from. Utopic will soon be getting the alpha-2 of LXC 1.1 which will contain all the fixes from 1.0.6.

Hello Stéphane, or anyone else affected,

Accepted lxc into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/1.0.6-0ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
