For people not following the Redmine ticket, KillYourTV successfully
tested my branch and it has now been merged.

In `auto/clean` we have:

    # static wiki
    rm -rf config/chroot_local-includes/usr/share/doc/tails/website
wiki/src/.ikiwiki
    find wiki/src -name *.pot -exec rm {} \;


So a `lb clean --all` will remove the built wiki etc. The Vagrant build
script is actually quite clever in that it *will* reuse any "cached"
wiki, which can save a couple minutes of build time. I personally find
this quite useful.

Cheers!
