Why would we want to include this in the Vagrantfile? The point of
the Vagrantfile is to create a system that is known to work to use
Buildroot, not something for the few people who happen to work on
Buildroot's web site. So I really don't see why would we add all this
complexity to the Vagrantfile.

Could you explain the rationale ?

Thanks,

Thomas
