We'd like to:

 * update chroots that have similar architechtures as the server
 * Mount /proc as necessary
 * look in ltsp-update-kernels, for logic to decide if something's a chroot
 * set the LTSP_HANDLE_DAEMONS="false" to avoid restarting anything in the chroot when doing updates.
 * if the kernel's been updated, run ltsp-update-kernels

Summary

Currently keeping an LTSP client chroot up to date or upgradint it to the next version requires commandline tasks from the adiminstrator. This spec shall define a way to integrate update management with the provided distro tools (for a start only integration with the gnome update manager will be discussed, but a kubuntu solution should be kept in mind while defining the implementation). Beyond security update management also dist-upgrader integration should take place so the client chroot gets upgraded to a new release automatically.
