Solution: using image fingerprint instead is worjking fine.

This appears to work on my test box. I see that you're on Ubuntu 19.10, so your LXD version is likely ahead of mine.
The builder essentially preforms the following command:
lxc launch [some flags] ubuntu:trusty/i386 test-x86 [other flags]
From your debug logs:
2020/02/10 11:37:41 packer-builder-lxd plugin: Executing lxc command: []string{"launch", "--ephemeral=false", "--profile=default", "ubuntu:trusty/i386", "packer-ubuntu-14-04-i386", "--config", "security.privileged=false"}

==> ubuntu-14-04-i386: Error creating container: LXD command error: Error: Failed instance creation: The requested image couldn't be found
The two scenarios that come to mind are:
- LXD has made this somehow invalid between 3.0.3 -> yours
- ~We have a regression in packer between 1.4.3 -> 1.5.1~
# this version also works fine
clundquist@nuc:~/go/src/github.com/hashicorp/packer$ ./bin/packer version
Packer v1.5.2-dev
What does:
lxc launch --ephemeral=false --profile=default ubuntu:trusty/i386 packer-ubuntu-14-04-i386 --config security.privileged=false
return for you from the command line? since that's the failing command.

it must be a lxd regression:
lxd 3.19 & 3.20 (snap):
lxc launch --ephemeral=false --profile=default ubuntu:trusty/i386 packer-ubuntu-14-04-i386 --config security.privileged=false
