Like that, doesn't work, but I think is good start. After some tries I got:

f = Chef::Resource::AptPackage.new "libsqlite3-ruby" do
  action :install
end
f.run_action(:install)

But it ask me for the run_context:

FATAL: ArgumentError: apt_package[libsqlite3-ruby] (dynamically
defined) had an error: Cannot find the provider for a resource with no
run context set

I tried this:
f = Chef::Resource::AptPackage.new("libsqlite3-ruby",
        Chef::RunContext.new(@node,
Chef::CookbookCollection.new(Chef::CookbookLoader.new(Chef::Config[:cookbook_path]))))
f.run_action(:install)

Still no luck:
NoMethodError: undefined method `cookbook_collection=' for nil:NilClass

But getting close. I think...

Thanks for the help :-)
