Bug Description

On Xenial, I ran this to build the container:

$ sudo adt-build-lxc ubuntu xenial

but when I try to adt-run with that container, it gives me an error. Note that the presence or not of -U --apt-pocket and --sudo make no difference:

$ adt-run -U --apt-pocket=proposed build-area/python-virtualenv_14.0.5+ds-1.dsc --- lxc --sudo adt-xenial
adt-run [15:52:24]: version 3.19.2
adt-run [15:52:24]: host subdivisions; command line: /usr/bin/adt-run -U --apt-pocket=proposed build-area/python-virtualenv_14.0.5+ds-1.dsc --- lxc --sudo adt-xenial
<VirtSubproc>: failure: ['sudo', 'lxc-clone', '--new', 'adt-virt-lxc-mmluqo', '--orig', 'adt-xenial'] unexpectedly produced stderr output `lxc-clone is deprecated in favor of lxc-copy.

'
adt-run [15:52:26]: ERROR: testbed failure: cannot send to testbed: ['BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe\n']

Is it the deprecation that's the problem?

Right, it's the stderr output that throws it off. I'll just ignore warnings from that command, but in the medium term I need to teach the runner to use the new lxc-copy if available, as lxc-start-ephemeral and lxc-clone will go away right after xenial release.

The failure is fixed by http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=7310b05, but this isn't the full story yet -- this should use lxc-copy when available.

Also, all the tests are still broken with current LXC for some other reasons, there are multiple subtle behaviour changes with 2.0.0~rc2 and rc3.

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 3.20.1

---------------
autopkgtest (3.20.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * When testing click packages, don't regenerate all AppArmor profiles if
    /var/cache/apparmor/click-ap.rules already exists. That way the profiles
    can be pre-adjusted once in a testbed instead of once for each test run,
    which greatly speeds up iterations. (LP: #1553797)
  * Move SshRunner* tests from lxc to lxd.
  * NullRunner.test_tree_output_dir test: Only check for cpu_{model,flags} on
    x86 and ARM, as these need parsing adjustments on other architectures.
  * Disable lxd autopkgtest for now, this still needs some way to set a proxy.
  * lib/VirtSubproc.py, cmd_reboot(): Add workaround for dhclient hanging on
    reboot (see LP #1556175).
  * Fix regular expression for removing profile guarded dependencies on hosts
    that don't support build profiles.
  * adt-virt-lxc: Suppress lxc-copy's stdout in the "no btrfs" fallback case.
    (Closes: #818185)
