The upstart job I posted demonstrates that you can still do it pretty
easily. Note that libcgroup is in universe, is no longer maintained,
and was always buggy by design. If we simply re-enable the part that
you want to use, it won't work well in a large number of cases.
Another simpler solution would be to take the precise package and
build it in a ppa for trusty. You would then be able to use it
from there.
