These were containers created by juju, which uses

lxc-create -n clint-local-mysql-0 -t ubuntu -f /tmp/something -- -r
oneiric

I think the issue is that my oneiric cache was created a long time ago:

$ ls -ld /var/cache/lxc/oneiric
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 12 10:45 /var/cache/lxc/oneiric

This check seems a bit inadequate:

    if [ ! -e "$cache/rootfs-$arch" ]; then
        download_ubuntu ...

Not sure what could be done to check that it is current though. :-P

What about adding a medium priority debconf question that would offer
to clear the lxc cache on upgrade from any versions that didn't enable
security?
