Daniel: I don't think upgrading Chef is the only solution to this problem - 10.x versions are affected too, and a lot of people are not ready to upgrade due to the large number of breaking changes.

There is already a prerelease gem with the fix, `gem install chef --pre`. There are prerelease flags for bootstrap if you're using gem bootstraps. Working on full release now.

I've just found this was already opened. I assume it is the same issue: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3835

Will watch it to be aware of the fix.

Thanks!

It appears that net-ssh was updated today and is broken.

Hi!

I am trying to install the chef gems in an Ubuntu 11.04, but installation fails due to its dependencies.

I installed ruby from the Ubuntu repositories:

  apt-get update

  apt-get install -y ruby ruby-dev build-essential wget

And Rubygems from the tarball and updated as follows:

  wget http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-1.3.7.tgz

  tar zxf rubygems-1.3.7.tgz

  ruby setup.rb --no-format-executable

  gem update --system

  gem update

  gem list

      *** LOCAL GEMS ***

      rubygems-update (1.8.25)

But when I try to install the chef gem after a clean Rubygems installation, I get the following error:

  gem install chef --no-rdoc --no-ri

      ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::DependencyError)

      Unable to resolve dependencies: chef requires net-ssh (~> 2.2.2); net-ssh-multi requires net-ssh (>= 2.6.5); net-ssh-gateway requires net-ssh (>= 2.6.5)

Is there something I am missing?

Thank you,

Ignasi
