<meekly raising hand>

I'm all for improvements to the packaging of Chef/ruby/etc for CentOS, but the profile.d modification strikes me as being one step too far.  Can't really justify it, just doesn't feel right.

Does anyone object to Matt's changes being included in the RPMs?

Thanks a lot, Matt.

I'm using this method right now and I made a knife bootstrap template
to use the rpms instead of manually installed rubygems. The rpm
doesn't link the chef-client binary into /usr/bin/chef-client where
the init script looks for it, so I'm doing that manually. I also added
a profile.d snippet to add the rubygems bin directory to the default
path.
