the path, the symlink keeps pointing to /run instead of to
/.oldroot/run :-(
On Fedora "/var/run" is a relative symlink to "../run" to avoid
these kinds of problem.
As a quick workaround you can make your symlink relative too.
I'll get a fix into the next libvirt release to deal with
absolute symlinks better.
ostara ~ # cd /var
ostara var # rm run; ln -s ../run run
ostara var # virsh -c lxc:/// start dwj-lnx-dev
Domain dwj-lnx-dev started
