Created attachment 426460 [details, diff] lxc-1.0.7-kf-gentoo-template.patch From 950e94b0ad06eaca2227956559334c511e3064f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kristian Fiskerstrand <kristian.fiskerstrand@sumptuouscapital.com> Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2016 10:15:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] templates/lxc-gentoo.in: Fix download issue due to updated pointer templates/lxc-gentoo.in downloads a pointer to the latest stage3 release, e.g http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/latest-stage3-amd64.txt that contains two fields, the path to the file itself and a timestamp. The timestamp is attempted to be included in the further downloading automatically, resulting in 404 error. By splitting this properly download works again --- templates/lxc-gentoo.in | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
Similarly to Bug 650770 , as of today on LXC 3.0.1 with lxc-templates installed, creating a new container with the "gentoo" template works fine. Closing.
