Mathias Gibbens	0f383bc13b	Update the list of Debian releases that work out of the box It is still possible to create containers for jessie and stretch, although you need to manually specify the archive mirror and keyring: lxc-create -t debian -n stretch -- -r stretch \ --mirror=http://archive.debian.org/debian \ --keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-removed-keys.gpg While the jessie container starts up, it doesn't automatically get an IP -- I didn't perform any further investigation. stretch works just fine. Debian releases wheezy and earlier fail to create the container in various ways. This commit just changes the presented list of releases; there is some existing logic for handling archived releases, but I didn't want to risk breaking things by tinkering with the existing code.
