When creating a Debian testing/forky LXC container on a Debian trixie machine, the following error may be encountered in the output:
I: Resolving dependencies of required packages... I: Resolving dependencies of base packages... I: Checking component main on http://deb.debian.org/debian... E: Couldn't find these debs: isc-dhcp-client Failed to download the rootfs, aborting. Failed to download 'debian base' failed to install debian
This is a result of bug #1125011 in the Debian bug tracker.
There are several possible solutions:
- Manually apply the patches supplied by the Debian LXC team
- Probably might be solved by running lxc-create on a testing/forky machine, where the solution may have already been applied - I have not confirmed this
- Or it may work on a sid machine
