Hello —

Instead of using templates to kickoff the creation of containers on various 
hosts (potentially time consuming or difficult in restricted access 
environments), I’m wanting to build LXC ‘base boxes’ (to borrow a word from 
vagrant) and distribute them to hosts (via package management or HTTP) to have 
them run one of many container images.

I’m eyeing tools like Packer (packer.io), or even using an LXC template to 
build a container and then package up the result.

Is anyone on the list doing this, or instead just using the build from template 
route?  Perhaps more importantly: is what I’m describing a bad idea?

Thanks,
./JRH
