I have recently removed role::labs::vagrant from the default list of roles that can be applied to a new instance in Labs. Instances that already had this role applied are unchanged, but going forward role::labs::mediawiki_vagrant should be used instead for setting up new MediaWiki-Vagrant managed wikis in Labs. See the prior Labs-L announcement of role::labs::mediawiki_vagrant [0] or the help page on Wikitech [1] for a description of the new role and it's benefits.
I don't have a sexy automated migration plan for anyone wishing to migrate an existing labs-vagrant manged wiki to the new method. My best advice is to follow the instructions at Manual:Moving_a_wiki [2] to backup your wiki and then restore it to a new Labs instance that have been setup with role::labs::mediawiki_vagrant. It would be great if anyone who chooses to do this migration could add documentation on Wikitech [3] to help others out.
