I realized I was unclear. Such instructions could:

1. either allow me to build a new, up-to-date basebox from scratch
(possibly hard, likely Veewee has changed 10 times since then and
our stuff does not work anymore, as it is customary in the Ruby
ecosystem)
2. or allow me to update our existing basebox (that is, likely to run
two commands in the VM and have the changes persist into the .box);
this is probably easy enough for anyone willing to learn the very
basics of Vagrant, I guess.

... note that this hack would have to be documented on the relevant
design doc [1], so it is a bit more work, and probably not that
interesting compared to #2 above.
