I'm tired of waiting for this, so I have switched to bento/ubuntu-24.04 in my Vagrantfile. Sorry.

not sure what is going on, ladar's github profile has been dead silent since February. Hope he is doing well.

He probably just got sour on investing any more effort in the HashiCorp ecosystem after they screwed over the Terraform community.

Vagrant is still a useful tool but you have to roll your own boxes and not rely on public ones, that's my take anyway.. probably better for security too. Also sad when there is only 1 maintainer for popular things too.. this kinda work takes a lot of effort and people lose interest easily.
