Package: vagrant
Version: 2.3.4+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: kenhys@xdump.org

Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?

HashiCorp adopts the BSL.

https://ir.hashicorp.com/news-releases/news-release-details/hashicorp-adopts-
business-source-license-future-releases-its

Currently, vagrant 2.3.4+dfsg-1 was packaged in debian.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?

Should we keep non-BSL licenced version (A) or drop it (B)?

* What was the outcome of this action?

Plan A.

- Update to 2.3.7 and hold it. (2.3.7 is the last non-BSL licenced
  version)
- Follow a newer version only when BSL limitation expired (4 years).
- As a result, we can't use newer feature in timely manner if you stick
  on packaged vagrant in Debian.

Plan B.

- Drop vagrant because of that changed licence and no need to
  keep older vagrant.
- No vagrant avaiable in Debian. Just use upstream's package.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

N/A
