Use libtool for liblxc.so This should allow proper filtering of build flags for libraries and make it easier to use PIE/PIC. Signed-off-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com>

build: Fix support for split build and source dirs Building LXC in a separate target directory, by running configure from outside the source tree, failed with multiple errors, mostly in the Python and Lua extensions, due to assuming the source dir and build dir are the same in a few places. To fix that: - Pre-process setup.py with the appropriate directories at configure time - Introduce the build dir as an include path in the Lua Makefile - Link the default container configuration file from the alternatives in the configure stage, instead of setting a variable and using it in the Makefile Signed-off-by: Daniel Miranda <danielkza2@gmail.com> Acked-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com>

lua: respect configure's --prefix Install lua files under the confiugred --prefix rather than use the pkg-config's variables LUA_INSTALL_[CL]MOD. Users will likely want user --prefix while packagers will use DESTDIR. Set the default to $datadir/lua/$LUA_VERSION for arch independent lua modules and $libdir/lua/$LUA_VERSION for arch dependant .so module. This should work for most distros. If it does not, then packagers can still do: make install lualibdir=$(pkg-config lua --variable=INSTALL_CMOD) ...

lua: Do not link Lua module to the Lua core library Modules should not link to the Lua core library.

configure/makefile: Allow specify Lua pkg-config file with --with-lua-pc Enable support for both Lua 5.1 and 5.2 by letting user specify the Lua pkg-config package name. By default it will use 'lua' and try figure out which version it is. Signed-off-by: Natanael Copa <ncopa@alpinelinux.org> Acked-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com>

EXTRA_DIST: Fix missing files with "make dist" I recently noticed that the generated tarballs with "make dist" were incomplete unless the configure script was run on a machine with all possible build dependencies. That's wrong as you clearly don't need those dependencies to generate the tarball. This change fixes that. Signed-off-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com> Acked-by: Serge E.

add lua binding for the lxc API The lua binding is based closely on the python binding. Also included are a test program for excercising the binding, and an lxc-top utility for showing statistics on running containers.
