Just in case somebody needs to create a new container: you can install the
package lxc-templates (debian) and install the container from a local copy.
Unless there are some distributions whose templates are only found online.

&gt; I assume this is a result of the infrastructure changes which are in<br>
&gt; progress to effect the move of lxd (see <a \
href="https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/" rel="noreferrer" \
target="_blank">https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/</a><br> &gt; in case you haven&#39;t \
seen it).   I unfortunately don&#39;t have any access<br> &gt; to the infrastructure \
so I can&#39;t help.   I&#39;m pretty sure Stéphane has<br> &gt; had his hands full \
with that move, so I&#39;m afraid we need to give him<br> &gt; some time to get to \
fixing that.<br> &gt; <br>
&gt; What&#39;s impressive to me is how long he has run that infrastructure with<br>
&gt; nary a glitch, that its failure now is so painful :)<br>
