In need of a quick way to deploy a WordPress minimum requirements compatible Vagrant box I’ve modified my fork of Jeffrey Way’s original shell provisioning script to have something as close to minimum requirements as possible to work with.
The VM is based on an Ubuntu 10.04 “Lucid Lynx” 64bit box to have a PHP 5.2 and MySQL 5.1 machine ready.
MySQL server is a notch above WordPress minimum requirements but still that’s so abstracted that I will keep it for the time being.
The virtual machine will raise warnings during provisioning, the XDebug installation specifically, but will work in the end.
The setup is then the same as in Jeffrey Way’s original guide.
A php -v command will print a “so 2011” version list to the terminal

I will update/fork my libraries to stick with the PHP 5.2 requirements and allow their use in my projects.
