Comment 4 for bug 1007433

I encounter the same issue while trying to use the same image for juju.

If I use a precise image, cloud-init-output.log ends with:

Installed /usr/lib/juju/juju
Processing dependencies for juju==0.5
Finished processing dependencies for juju==0.5
  % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current

juju-machine-agent start/running, process 4776

with the quantal image that's:

Accordingly, (fuzzily matching the /var/log/syslog files) in precise:
