thanks for playing around with it. I also would've liked this to work without
the lxc package but as you can say, this can be fixed at a later point.
For things to maybe become a bit more light-weight I proposed a patch to the
lxc source package which splits out those two applications into their own
binary package. See #847491.
Thanks!
