Currently I think the official LXD packages will be snap packages for all distros, with the exception of the Ubuntu LTS releases.
That is, in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS you get LXD as an official deb package.
Obviously, this does not preclude the distributions from packaging LXD in their own packaging format.
Apart from the AlpineLinux effort to package LXD, there is also a Debian effort, https://wiki.debian.org/LXD https://wiki.debian.org/LXD
- stgraber 8y agoNote that Ubuntu 20.04 will be using the snap package, so we only really need to focus on one thing to validate for all distros. Users upgrading from 18.04 to 18.10 are already being automatically migrated over to the snap. We have 3 tracks for the snap right now: - 2.0 LTS - 3.0 LTS - latest So users that want to stay on an upstream LTS release can still do even after switching to the snap.
