lxctl --help and the manpage have a few typos (some are corrected in the
manpage but not in the lxctl script):

Some descriptions could be improved, for example --empty.
The --man action does not seem to work. It requires root rights to run and
with sudo it returns Unsupported command?
cts@nunzio:~>lxctl --man
Error: you are not root!
Unsupported command!
Usage:
lxctl [action] [vmname] [options]
