Dear all,
due to Hashicorp changing the license of vagrant to the BUSL, we can no longer update vagrant in openSUSE. I don't have the cycles to maintain vagrant myself indefinitely and plan to send a delete request at the end of November to Factory. Once that goes in, I also plan to remove the Virtualization:vagrant project to reduce the number of rubygems we have in openSUSE.
If you don't like this plan and decide to scream at me, please scream an actionable plan that involves you :-)
I like thet plan - BUT please first disarm the openQA tests for vagrant. If we're already planning on dropping it, we should stop testing it at least beforehand.
This actually brings up another issue, we use vagrant to test our
opensuse vagrant boxes. But without vagrant in the distro, we'll have a
hard time testing the boxes. The only simple way that I see is to
install vagrant from the upstream provided binary:

Cheers,
Dan
