[Bug 925511] Re: lxc init script should fail when it ... failed

[Serge Hallyn]

@Ritesh,

the dnsmasq for the lxc bridge explicitly binds only lxcbr0.  So if that
fails, then your other dnsmasq has already bound all interfaces.

If /etc/init.d/lxc fails to start now, then lxcbr0 never had dhcp
before.  If you're not using lxcbr0 for your containers, then you can
simply set USE_LXC_BRIDGE="false" in /etc/default/lxc.

If do want to use lxcbr0, then you should change your other dnsmasq to
not bind all interfaces.

A third alternative, I suppose, would be that you want to use lxcbr0 but
your statically assign addresses to your containers.  We could add a
USE_LXC_BRIDGE_DNSMASQ variable to /etc/default/lxc to support that use
case.  If that is what you want, please open a new bug against lxc and
I'll add it.
