I guess I didn't phrase my question well. Once I figured out what was happening, the solution was straightforward. However, this is a usability problem. Why did I have to spend any time digging to find out why this cookbook was failing? 

There should simply just be the equivalent of

gem ohai '=> 0.10.12' 

How do you specify that in a cookbook? 

If Vagrant is how you learn chef, there will be back level boxes. Especially as the transition to Chef 11 
moves forward. 

Mysterious errors for stuff that is supposed to "just work" is not the way to win friends.
