Yes, the plan entails both an update to the juju in main for the 2.0
release and a new juju 1.25 in universe that cooperates with the
changes.

For the debian packaging nitty gritty, what we had before was:

Archive:
  juju (depends juju-core)
    juju-core (/usr/bin/juju etc)
  juju-local (depends juju-core, juju-mongodb, lxc bits)
  juju-local-kvm (depends juju-core, juju-mongodb, libvirt bits)

Devel PPA:
  juju2 (/usr/bin/juju2 etc)

We have the following proposed:

Main:
  juju (depends juju-2.0, suggests juju-core)
    juju-2.0 (/usr/lib/juju-2.0/bin/juju, linked as /usr/bin/juju and
wrapped as /usr/bin/juju-2.0)

(The lxd provider is bundled, replacing the local packaging bits for 2.0).

Universe:
  juju-core (transitional depends juju-1.25)
  juju-1 (depends juju-1.25)
    juju-1.25 (/usr/lib/juju-1.25/bin/juju, wrapped as /usr/bin/juju-1)
  juju-local (depends juju-1.25, juju-mongodb, lxc bits)
  juju-local-kvm (depends juju-1.25, juju-mongodb, libvirt bits)

When upgrading, you keep your juju package and upgrade juju-core to
the new 1.X packaging, and pick up the new 2.0 package. With a fresh
install, you just get 2.0 unless you ask for juju-1 as well or take
the suggests.
