Trying to put my own server together and ran into an issue on the first line of the setup txt:

https://github.com/petewarden/dstk/blob/master/docs/ec2setup.txt

~$ sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:olivier-berten/geo

Not sure if this is my new clean install (12.04 Ubuntu) or the repo but figured I would just flag it for your attention in case expected behavior is different. I'll keep on playing around on my end. I have a dedicated server so it seems silly to run an additional VM inside but I'm more than happy to do it.

Oh, and dstk is amazing - thank you for your work!
