There was no further call on these (other than stating to be no more used)
so I intend to get them removed by an AA.

I saw that Emilian already updated one of the bugs that it is fixed.
Also there is a lot recent activity on [1] which I appreciate - given what
I read there maybe even more bugs could be updated to be fixed (or nacked
for a reason).

I updated the bug [2] with the concluding actions.
Thank you everybody for your participation.

[2]: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vm-builder/+bug/1260062

P.S. All of this might still be a bit bumpy for Artful given that the
Feature Freeze is just a week out but I look forward to see vmbuild getting
usable again from now on.
