Whether you want to track Juju development more closely, or simply like living on the edge, there is a new ppa available for you. Dubbed the Juju Daily ppa[1], it] contains the latest blessed builds from CI testing. Installing this ppa and upgrading regularly allows you to stay in sync with the absolute latest version of Juju that passes our CI testing. New packages are copied as soon as a blessed build is complete. This can occur multiple times a day should every build pass, or it may be several days between builds should new revisions contain failures.

The Juju QA team don’t recommend running this ppa for production or critical system usage, but we are happy to hear about bugs[2] you may encounter while running these versions of Juju. To add the ppa, you will need to add ppa:juju/daily to your software sources.


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:juju/daily


Do be aware that adding this ppa will upgrade any version of Juju you may have installed. Also note this ppa contains builds without published streams, so you will need to generate or acquire streams on your own. For most users, this means you should pass --upload-tools during the bootstrap process. However you may also pass the agent-metadata-url and agent-stream as config options. See the ppa description and simplestreams documentation for more details[3].


Finally, should you wish to revert to a stable version of Juju, you can use the ppa-purge tool[4] to remove the daily ppa and the installed version of Juju.


We hope this proves useful to you, feedback welcome!
