Heyas,

I ran into the same problem, it looks like it's the 
"chef-client::config" recipe that's doing it... I haven't 
figured out why it would do that ... 

found this:
%w{run_path cache_path backup_path log_dir}.each do |key|
  directory node['chef_client'][key] do
    recursive true
    owner "root"
    group root_group
    mode 0755
  end
end
