How to correctly delete libertine containers on Ubuntu Touch

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1809 / 2 Years ago, sat, december 11, 2021, 11:08:52

So if I list libertine containters and then try to destroy some I get an error message suggesting that the container doesn't exist.

Is the list command faulty or the destroy command?

listing containers

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ libertine-container-manager list

puritine

vivid2

trying to destroy one container

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ libertine-container-manager destroy -i vivid2

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/libertine-container-manager", line 857, in <module>

args.func(args)

  File "/usr/bin/libertine-container-manager", line 430, in destroy

destroy_container_by_id(args.id)

  File "/usr/bin/libertine-container-manager", line 416, in destroy_container_by_id

    container = LibertineContainer(id)

  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libertine/Libertine.py", line 287, in __init__

from  libertine.LxcContainer import LibertineLXC

ImportError: No module named 'libertine.LxcContainer'

listing containers again

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ libertine-container-manager list

puritine

vivid2

It seems the error occurred because I had earlier tried to create lxc containers and the Ubuntu-touch kernel doesn't currently support this.

Details on https://bugs.launchpad.net/libertine/+bug/1609086

eDevise and Bjarne Roß both give working methods to destroy containers in their answers. The most 'correct' way is the following syntax

libertine-container-manager destroy -i container_name

As outlined in the bug comments this isn't an issue that should affect users from now on.
