Vagrant failed to properly resolve required dependencies. These
errors can commonly be caused by misconfigured plugin installations
or transient network issues. The reported error is:

I just install it with apt. I haven't tried this way in a long time.

It installed via apt but its not seeing libvirt as an available provider.

IRJ

vagrant up --provider=libvirt

The provider 'libvirt' could not be found, but was requested to
back the machine 'default'. Please use a provider that exists.

Vagrant knows about the following providers: docker, virtualbox, hyperv

No plugins installed.

So I'm kind of shooting in the dark. Is there a plugins directory under ~/.vagrant.d/?

If there is what happens if you delete it?

Isn't 2.0.2 old as dirt? 2.2.9 is the current version.

apt --reinstall vagrant-libvirt

Reinstall supposedly worked, but still not seeing plugin
