If anyone is a lxc user, I just worked through a sizable update from 4.x to 5.x.

https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-virtualization/commit/?h=master-next&id=67c13e9ec856ed3e9af0febad03d29581dd1f0ac

In particular, the build is now meson based .. and a lot of the old
options (and patches) don't really apply to the new structure.

I've tested the update through a basic smoke test, in a systemd based image.

So now is the heads up to test other workflows and send patches if
something is broken!

Cheers,

Bruce

after updating my oe-core and other layers today, I'm seeing a build
error in the new LXC, not sure if it is also in the old.

So if anyone tries this out, and sees a compilation problem, I'm aware
of it and looking into it.

Bruce
