  • Tracker changed from Bug to Freedom Issue

gnutoo - just some tips on using the redmine interface - you forgot to set the ticket metadata - in this case:

Issue Concern: 'freedom issue'
Status: 'confirmed'
Priority: 'freedom issue'

(or if you are planning to start working on it now:
Status: 'in-progress'
Assignee: 'gnutoo'
)

the metadata can always be changed after the ticket is opened, by clicking:
Reply, then Description::Edit

FWIW, the 'Priority' field is not doing much work for us - i have considered simply hiding it; but i think the 'status' and 'assignee' are rather important for "tracking" the issue progress

  • Subject changed from lxd has dubious containers repositories (It can download and install an ubuntu container from a single command) to [lxd]: has dubious containers repositories (It can download and install an ubuntu container from a single command)

BTW, are you able to get any of those container to boot? - i remember trying this and it would download the images; but i could not get any to boot
