juju

I recently bought a VPS (OpenVZ) with Ubuntu 13.04. Lately I've read about Juju and I thought it would match my needs on my brand new VPS as I want to easily configure Hadoop, Wordpress, Graphite and other services.

I tried the juju-local approach but I got an error while installing it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6373143/

So I got to #juju IRC channel and I was told to use "Manual bootstrapping" and create a question here in order to get more info as it seems is something under development.

Could anybody help me getting Juju to work on my VPS? Did any had the same problem?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: After some more research (and after reading my own question) I think I should clarify a little more the situation.

What I want is a manual provider to allow me manage my VPS from Juju. I know there might be a work in progress and I would appreciate any info regarding it's state and any possible solution :)
