Hey Jeremy,

 Thanks for the tip, however it didn't appear to work for me, any idea what I am doing wrong?

This is shef, the Chef shell.
 Chef Version: 0.10.10

run `help' for help, `exit' or ^D to quit.

chef > env = Chef::Environment.load('dt_prod')

I've done this once before using shef, and it turns out to be pretty easy.

1) Fire up shef like so

 % shef -z -c ~/.chef/knife.rb

2) Load your environment

 chef > env = Chef::Environment.load('YOUR_ENV_HERE')

3) Grab your cookbook versions and format to taste.

 chef > env.cookbook_versions
 => {"build-essential"=>"= 1.0.0", … }

4) Include your output in environments/YOUR_ENV_HERE.rb

5)  Upload

 % knife environment from file environments/YOUR_ENV_HERE.rb

HTH,

Jeremy
