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>

Make 'make dist' match git content This fixes a few obvious issues when comparing the make dist output with the git tree. - Make all templates non-executable in git - Remove unused files: - src/lxc/list.c (empty, only includes the list.h header) - src/lxc/lxc-destroy.in (replace by lxc_destroy.c) - Add missing files to dist tarball: - src/python-lxc/examples/pyconsole.py - src/python-lxc/examples/pyconsole-vte.py - Mark all the python API tests executable - Mark lxc-test-ubuntu executable Signed-off-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com> Signed-off-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@ubuntu.com>

Fix 'make clean' This is mostly to make debuild happy as it doesn't tolerate any leftover file when building twice in a row. Signed-off-by: Stéphane Graber <stgraber@ubuntu.com> Acked-by: Serge E. Hallyn <serge.hallyn@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 python-lxc based on the new liblxc API. This adds a basic python binding done in C and a python overlay to extend some features and provide a user-friendlier API. This python API only supports python 3.x and was tested with >= 3.2. It's disabled by default in configure and can be turned on by using --enable-python. A basic example of the API can be found in src/python-lxc/test.py. More documentation and examples will be added soon.
