CentOS virt - Sep 2013 - "lxc-centos" container automation script

Hello,

For me as a debianista who has need to run some software (Kolab) in the 
vendor(provider)-supported OS (CentOS), LXC is a godsend. However, lxc 
distributions I am aware of do not ship the "lxc-fedora" or
"lxc-debian"
equivalent to construct a container.
I have thus set out to modify the former (please find the result attached).

In the process of getting that to work yum/rpm presents me with the 
following errors:

Installing     : filesystem-2.4.30-3.el6.x86_64

  warning: group lock does not exist - using root
  warning: group mail does not exist - using root

  Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package

  warning: %post(initscripts-9.03.38-1.el6.centos.2.x86_64) scriptlet 
failed, exit status 1

I was wondering whether anyone here could advise on how to circumvent these 
issues. Optimally I'd like to prevent them (which may not be feasible given 
the "chroot" nature of the install). How to fix this from within a
running
container would also be most welcome information  ...

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely, Joh
