cgmanager was an Ubuntu project and it was abandoned when Ubuntu chose to migrate to systemd [1]. The README on [2] says "Please note that the CGManager project has been deprecated in favor of using the kernel's CGroup Namespace or lxcfs' simulated cgroupfs." I don't know what the "in favor of" means or how to take advantage of those two options, but maybe there's a solution in there.
