If shoving a static binary in your Docker container is an option, it's pretty simple to build the LXD client alone as a static binary.
Install "golang-go" and "git", then run "go get github.com/lxc/lxd/lxc". This will take a little while as it downloads the needed source trees. Once done, you'll find a "lxc" binary in ~/go/bin/ which you can start using as standalone client. On Sun, Jul 12, 2020 at 10:45 PM Fajar A.
