I still cannot explain the cause of these random errors in this unit test,
but it is anyway safe and suitable to update the test code as following:
- use stricter regular expression matching (-l is included in --limit)
- array lengths substraction instead of array contents substraction
Motivation:
By printing out the ansible command used behind the scene, we can ease
the support effort to very quickly identify whether a problem is due to
Vagrant provisioner or Ansible itself.
There are two types of box metadata, both in JSON format, so
we need to minimise the potential for confusion between them.
Renaming the component outside the box file to include the
word "catalog" makes it clear that this JSON document can
catalog potentially multiple boxes in one go.
The metadata is optional whereas the box file is required, so it makes
sense to list the box file first. It's also easier on the reader's
brain to start with the more obvious and easily understandable item
(which they'll probably be expecting to read about anyway) and save
the more surprising item till later.
It doesn't make sense to use the present tense when saying box files are
split into two components, when one of those components is the box file
and one is something else.
One better way of phrasing it would be to use the past tense: "Box files
were split into two separate components" but even that's not completely
correct, because the old format did not include the metadata JSON
document which is one of the new components.
So it's safer to just say that today there are two different components.
v2/networking/index.html.md encourages the reader to seek
provider-specific information under the documentation for the provider,
so for consistency, any virtualbox-specific networking info should be
placed there, not in the general networking section.
