"vagrant up" fails if glance image does not have rsync

[ggiamarchi]

Even if no sync folder is declared in the Vagrantfile, vagrant tries to rsync Vagrantfile's directory on /vagrant. So, if rsync command is not available "vagrant up" fails. The VM is started but provisionners are not exectued.

Some possible solutions :

• Test if rsync is available
  • and do not sync folders and log a warning if not
  • and do not sync /vagrant folder and log a warning if not but fails on user defined sync folders
• Add configuration boolean property "sync.enabled"
• Add configuration string property "sync.method" to allow to use other method than rsync
• Try to fallback on other sync method ?

Solution will probably be a combination of some of these ones

The provider has moved to the standard vagrant synced folders middleware. I close all issues related to the legacy synced folders implementation. Feel free to comment/reopen this thread if you think you still get an issue related to this provider.
