You should probably internalize package management prior to cloning the
guest.

If you want to use external package management, even if it's just to
internalize it, you'll have to copy /vservers/.pkg/test to
/vservers/.pkg/demo, and quite possibly create a symlink
(/etc/vservers/<name>/apps/pkgmgmt/base, according to my cursory
investigation).
