This post assumes you've read [my comment on #257](https://github.com/scotch-io/scotch-box/issues/257#issuecomment-259828235).\r\n\r\n_tl;dr: installed php PPA is dead, if you wish to alter/add/change modules installed via that ppa, you're gonna have a bad time._\r\n\r\n**Since we're at this stand-still and lots of us have work to do, I'd like to [bat-signal](http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/batman/images/6/66/Bat_100.jpg) @whatnickcodes for intervention.**\r\n\r\nThis is a breaking change to most environments (any reliant on installing/altering php modules), and requires rectification as soon as possible. Due to the build process being effectively closed-source (if it's out there, I sure haven't found it), this will require direct intervention from someone with access to the aforementioned build scripts.\r\n\r\nI am more than happy to help in any way possible. As a longtime sysadmin turned dev, I have no problem assisting with the creation/cleanup/updating. I was rolling my own vagrant customization to stock ubuntu prior to this, effectively creating the same thing until I found Scotch Box ~1.5 years ago. Since then, my team has been using it almost exclusively.\r\n\r\nI cannot seem to find any public resources regarding the creation of the actual vagrant box from it's base machine. I see reference of the environment utilizing Chef, and Packer in the future; though a lack of the scripts themselves.\r\n\r\n## Proposed solution going forward\r\n\r\n_I'd like to take this time to formally propose open-sourcing the build scripts surrounding the Vagrant \"scotch/box\"._\r\n\r\nWith intentional regard to reducing the risk of hard forks/competing solutions, I still feel publishing the build scripts for the box would eliminate the panic and helplessness I'm feeling now.  Since the repo would optimally still be under the \"scotch-io\" GH organization, control (and final say) of included changes would still be handled (I assume) by Nicholas Cerminara.\r\n\r\nThe proposed solution would allow Nicholas to maintain the project's technical and creative direction, but remove the need for him to preform all legwork associated with configuration/upkeep. At the same time, fostering community around the development of Scotch Box.\r\n\r\nI recommend that if my suggestion comes to fruition, the box's build process be placed in a separate repository than the example project repo (maintaining the low dependency nature of Scotch Box).\r\n\r\n**Note:** _This issue is created with the intention of solving the problem with the PPA. While I do talk about it at length here, further discussion about the possibility of granting access to the build process should be carried out in a new issue (assumes there's discussion to be had)._"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/scotch-io/scotch-box/issues/comments/284223816","html_url":"https://github.com/scotch-io/scotch-box/issues/273#issuecomment-284223816","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/scotch-io/scotch-box/issues/273","id":284223816,"user":{"login":"fbm-static","id":8855087,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/8855087?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static","html_url":"https://github.com/fbm-static","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/fbm-static/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2017-03-05T12:13:01Z","updated_at":"2017-03-05T12:13:01Z","body":"Any update?
