This is actually an issue with RubyGems 1.3.7. They changed the output  
formatting of gem list, which Chef uses to determine what Gem versions  
are available from the remote server to install.

I have tested that the mysql cookbook works on Ubuntu 10.04 with:

- - Ruby and Ruby1.8 from Ubuntu packages
- - RubygGems:
  - 1.3.6 installed from source
  - 1.3.5 installed from package
- - Chef 0.8.16 installed from RubyGems or Packages
