I got vagrant running on wsl using virtualbox as a provider - the problem was my firewall https://github.com/Karandash8/virtualbox_WSL2/issues/1

Disabling the firewall entirely worked, so then I figured I'd try the powershell script to only modify the virtualbox one. but then I got an error about vagrant versions differing on windows and wsl, which is weird to me since I imagine it shouldn't matter which side has which virtualbox version.

I briefly looked into bumping the version of vagrant that ubuntu has, and got as far as cloning the ubuntu packaging repository:

git clone https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vagrant ubuntu-vagrant

Once I opened that, I noticed the commit referenced `git-ubuntu import`. Not sure what this is, and hard to google
