Containers are insulated areas inside a system, which have their own namespace
for filesystem, network, PID, IPC, CPU and memory allocation and which can be
created using the Control Group and Namespace features included in the Linux
kernel.
.
This package provides the lxc-* tools, which can be used to start a single
daemon in a container, or to boot an entire "containerized" system, and to
manage and debug your containers.
