Desired Behavior

I want to install desktop environment on Ubuntu 20.04 using

instance_raw_config_args:
  - 'vm.provision :shell, path: "${MOLECULE_PROJECT_DIRECTORY}/../../environment/scripts/install_gnome_desktop_ubuntu.sh"'

Script looks like:

#!/usr/bin/env --split-string=bash -eux

export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
apt-get update
apt-get install --yes tasksel
tasksel install ubuntu-desktop
``

# Actual Behaviour
No output at all even using --debug
Nothing happen no GUI. But when I run it manually everything works as expected. I done it using prepare.yml but it looks more like workaround

the provision configuration is shown in the example and that’s it. Same for a bunch of other parameters. The doc is in pretty bad shape. It’s has been on my todo for quite some time but my priority atm is on the proper multi platform support. Feel free to open a bug on molecule-vagrant complaining how bad is the doc.
