Inside of a container, I am using docker with fuse-overlayfs as storage driver. This works quite well, but I found issues with some images. For example ubuntu:16.04 always fails:
# docker run ubuntu:16.04
docker: Error response from daemon: symlink /proc/mounts /var/lib/docker/fuse-overlayfs/2653fe53a0905d2bd4cdac608ca3468c6cb91472f28ae0a48b9bf13743f19ea8-init/merged/etc/mtab: file exists.
See 'docker run --help'.
Interesting is the case with the image http://ghcr.io/gvenzl/oracle-xe:11:
# docker run ghcr.io/gvenzl/oracle-xe:11

As you can see, the image sometimes starts correctly and sometimes fails with the same error as ubuntu:16.04.
I tried to update fuse-overlayfs to the latest git master, but this does not change anything.
I then tried to reproduce this issue with a native linux installation and fuse-overlayfs (so without LXD). I was unable to reproduce the issue there.
So at this point I am pretty clueless how this could be solved. Any idea?
