[chef] cookbook files not getting copied

[< >]

Chef folks,

I have several RPMs that I’d like to deliver using cookbook_file, but I’m
finding that the RPMs aren’t getting copied to the target machine.  Here’s
the relevant snippet of my recipe:

# Install brisk RPMs
briskrpms = {
  "libffi-3.0.9-1.el5.rf" => "x86_64.rpm ",
  "jna-3.2.7-10.el5" => "x86_64.rpm",
  "brisk-libpig-0.8.3-2~beta2" => "noarch.el5.rpm",
  "brisk-libhive-0.7.0-2~beta2" => "noarch.el5.rpm",
  "brisk-libhadoop-0.20.203-2~beta2" => "noarch.el5.rpm",
  "brisk-libcassandra-0.8.1-2~beta2" => "noarch.el5.rpm",
  "brisk-full-1.0~beta2-2" => "noarch.el5.rpm",
}

briskrpms.each_pair { |pkg, arch|
  rpm = "#{pkg}.#{arch}"
  tmprpm = "/tmp/#{rpm}"

  cookbook_file tmprpm do
    source rpm
    mode 0755
    owner "root"
    group "root"
  end

  rpm_package pkg do
    source tmprpm
  end
}

I’m guessing this doesn’t work because the Chef compile phase doesn’t
figure out that my RPMs need to be copied.  But I’m up in the air as to how I
should solve the problem.

Thanks in advance for the help,
