Sorry for the delay.

It doesn't work. It doesn't find the virtualbox provider (it uses
libvirt), and when forced, it says that it doesn't support 5.2.


*** lucas at grr:/tmp/tEEQ$ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'libvirt' provider...
Error while connecting to libvirt: Error making a connection to libvirt URI qemu:///system?no_verify=1&keyfile=/home/lucas/.ssh/id_rsa:
Call to virConnectOpen failed: authentication cancelled: user cancelled authentication process
*** lucas at grr:/tmp/tEEQ$ vagrant up --provider=virtualbox
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
reason is shown below:

Vagrant has detected that you have a version of VirtualBox installed
that is not supported by this version of Vagrant. Please install one of
the supported versions listed below to use Vagrant:

4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.0, 5.1

A Vagrant update may also be available that adds support for the version
you specified. Please check www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html to download
the latest version.
*** lucas at grr:/tmp/tEEQ$ dpkg -l |grep vagrant
