** Description changed:

  After installing current lxd (I purged it before, so any previous
- configuration should be done) the networking in the containers does not
+ configuration should be gone) the networking in the containers does not
  work at all, not even with apt-get update (as it seems it can't even
  reach the default Debian mirror).
  
  So I went with "dpkg-reconfigure lxd" as advertised on the postinst
  note.
  
  The first question is ambiguous: "Choosing this option will let you
  configure the default LXD bridge to your liking. If you would rather not
  have LXD do this for you, then you will be asked whether you want to use
  an existing bridge or just do everything manually." The default is
  "yes", so I picked that as I indeed want some default LXD bridge.
  
  Now it asks me for "a valid network interface name", defaulting to
  lxcbr0. This might be because I have lxc1 still installed, or this is an
  upgrade or so, but either way, using lxcbr0 seems totally fine -- that's
  what is already preconfigured and has worked well for a long time and
  allows me to connect lxc and lxd containers.
  
  So I go with "lxcbr0", but now it asks me a gazillion questions about IP
  addresses, masks, ask me to come up with a valid IPv6 address (how do I
  do that, and pick one that's valid, private, and not overlapping with
  something else?) None of these questions have defaults. Moreover, lxcbr0
  is already configured, so if I would put in different values then lxc
  and lxd probably just stomp on each other's feet?
