Public bug reported: I hit this using the local juju provider on precise with the latest updates to lxc.
The ubuntu template now automatically generates a hwaddr for the lxc container when it is created. However this then get propagated to clones of of this container resulting in multiple lxc instances all with the same mac address. I worked around this by scrubbing it from the base template container; however lxc-clone should probably remove or re-generate this during container cloning.
