I've taken a very quick look at this.
As the ticket #8086 suggests, it is an issue in the way Rake is used
with a "Monkey-patched" Vagrant to build TAILS.
Although the devs are keen to move to some other tech (Docker was
mentioned), I'm looking at removing Rake (and thus the Vagrant library
calls) from the build process if relatively easy to do so.
I suspect rake was used to front end Vagrant in earlier days when
perhaps Vagrant was less complete, but from quick examination, I don't
think Rake is required now (nor I suspect the patching). It would
simplify things enormously and bring wider Vagrant version compatibility
across (including non-Debian) build OS environments.
Comments on this welcome, because as I said, I've only started to
scratch the surface.
Regards,
Adam.
