Right! I need to update that. basically $ sudo adt-build-lxc debian sid $ adt-run dbus --- lxc --sudo adt-sid-$ARCH you need to be able to preserve the environment in some calls to lxc-* under sudo, for that I use the following in /etc/sudoers.d/lxc: ----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------- %sudo ALL = NOPASSWD:SETENV: /usr/bin/lxc- ----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------- -- Antonio Terceiro <[email protected]>
