# Dependency installation steps for Ubuntu 18.04.x LTS (Bionic Beaver)

This document assumes you are starting from a fresh install of Ubuntu in the 18.04.x series.

Most recently tested 2018-05-21 with the following ubuntu release:

```
$ lsb_release --description
Description:	Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
```



## Install Git, VirtualBox, Ansible, GnuPG, and rng-tools

```
$ sudo apt install git virtualbox ansible gnupg2 rng-tools
```



## Install Vagrant 2.0.3 or higher

As of this writing, the vagrant version that Ubuntu 18.04 uses is 2.0.2 so we suggest a later
release in the 2.0.x series.

```
$ wget https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/2.0.4/vagrant_2.0.4_x86_64.deb
...
$ sudo apt install ./vagrant_2.0.4_x86_64.deb

Package: vagrant
Status: install ok installed
...
$ rm ./vagrant_2.0.4_x86_64.deb
