21 Experimental: we have support for building an Ubuntu VM using Vagrant
22 and VirtualBox. The command ``vagrant up`` will start the process, although
23 it can currently take a long time to download and install all the relevant
24 packages. See "Using a Vagrant-driven Ubuntu virtual machine" in
25 xapian-core/HACKING for details.
