Because of this failure, there is no updated Vagrant box in Vagrant cloud. https://app.vagrantup.com/stackstorm/boxes/st2

Hi @ShawnHardwick, thanks for looking!

In short, previously we relied on a Packet.net account that created an on-demand bare-metal instance to build the virtualbox/packer image. Because we're cheap (#oss), it's no more and the pipeline needs to be migrated to free GH Actions which seems to work with Virtualbox under osx environment.

It's caused by the https://github.com/StackStorm/packer-st2/issues/54 See more details here: https://github.com/StackStorm/packer-st2/issues/54#issuecomment-1120283685

If you or someone would like to get involved and try to migrate the packer build pipeline to GH Actions, - that'll help! We'll be happy to assist with any pointers.

Thanks for the quick response @armab.
