    You may want to use the 'tools-metadata-url' configuration setting to specify the tools location.

Since local provider *DID* work before r2440, it appears the "checking that upload is possible" is too strict. CI is running lxc on the jenkins machine in ec2

The AWS instance we run lxc does state it is amd64 precise

Juju CI creates the release tarball, then makes and64 packages for trusty, precise, and saucy. Tests install the package in the workspace (not in the standard location). The PATH is updated to include the new juju. The tests then run with the new juju. Upgrade tests use the stable juju, then update the PATH, to switch to the new juju.

We can check the jujud version by exporting the PATH
$ cd ~/jobs/local-deploy/workspace/extracted-bin/usr/lib/juju-1.17.6/bin
$ PATH=/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/local-deploy/workspace/extracted-bin ./jujud version
1.17.6-precise-amd64
^ that is the version we are testing.
