So we need to build a box to use. This can be done either from an existing box (remember to remove the url in the Vagrant file) or from an url:

Existing box

vagrant mutate ubuntu/trusty64 libvirt

Online box

vagrant mutate https://atlas.hashicorp.com/ubuntu/boxes/precise64/versions/20150730.1.0/providers/virtualbox.box libvirt

efter that we have $ vagrant box list

0-x86_64 (libvirt, 1.1.0)

then try to start a vm:

vagrant up

Mutate and export

vagrant mutate https://atlas.hashicorp.com/ubuntu/boxes/trusty32/versions/20150609.0.9/providers/virtualbox.box libvirt
vagrant box repackage precise32 libvirt
mv package.box trusty32-20150609.0.9-libvirt.box
