When I have this kind of problem,  first thing to test its simple: 

- vagrant up  without  provision vm . ( comment out all chef references on Vagrantfile)
-  run offending command WITHOUT run apt-get update first.  
- If it fails, run apt-get update and fire up again. 

This situation is common when package has been removed from repos, but your local cache have references to it.

I created a folder for vagrantVM, edited Vagrantfile to add solo recipes, created a cookbooks folder and cloned mysql, build-essential, openssl from https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks and then vagrant up but chef failed.
