Vagrant destroy & up output

Expected behavior

Vagrant should load the virtual machine.

Actual behavior

I am getting an error about missing ifup/ifdown commands. I can fix the issue by running vagrant ssh , apt-get install ifupdown and then vagrant reload. If you check the release notes for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, you can see that the ifup and ifdown have been deprecated. Seems like settler was just upgraded to include this in the box version 6.0.

I guess temporary solution would to install ifupdown in settler or in the long run adjust the provisioning so that it uses netplan.io instead.

This is not a Homestead issue, but a Vagrant issue with 18.04 Ubuntu. Since you're on Windows you should stick to Vagrant version 2.0.3
