Avahi starts fine in a 16.04 container for me. Can you share what errors you are actually seeing Dustin?
lxc launch ubuntu:16.04 xenial ssh ubuntu@<ip> sudo apt install avahi-daemon sudo systemctl status avahi-daemon The post you linked is from January 2016 and on 15.10 (wily).. it does in fact not launch correctly on wily but it does fine on xenial. On wily, setting rlimit-nproc=4 seems to fix it, for some reason rlimit- nproc=3 fails on wily though the same setting is working on xenial. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to avahi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1661869 Title: maas install fails inside of a 16.04 lxd container due to avahi problems Status in MAAS: New Status in avahi package in Ubuntu: New Status in lxd package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The bug, and workaround, are clearly described in this mailing list thread: https://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc- users/2016-January/010791.html I'm trying to install MAAS in a LXD container, but that's failing due to avahi package install problems.
