If you're running a maverick guest, then this exists:
 lxc-create -f lxc_net_conf.conf -t ubuntu -n ubuntu1
will create a working lucid guest by default. I'm therefore marking this bug
'fix released.'

The ubuntu 'template' is really just a shell script that uses debootstrap
to setup the basic system and then tweaks the guest configuration to work
nicely as a lxc guest. Much of it could be reused on a lucid host, but
not all, especially as the lxc guest job control (used in /etc/init/lxc.conf)
does not exist in lxc 0.6.5.

If you are interested in using this on a lucid guest, then I would
recommend sending an email to the lxc-users mailing list, and posting the
result on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LXC.
