[chef] ngx_openresty error?

[Liam Kirsher < >]

I'm going through the tutorial on the  learnchef.opscode site and have run into a problem.

I succeeded in bootstrapping the node the first time.  Then I added some more cookbooks (the ones I actually need) using berkshelf.
Now when I try to bootstrap the node I get errors.  In the example below I'm just using the run-list from the tutorial that I started with.
If I log into the node and run "chef-client -l debug" the output seems to suggest a problem with ngx_openresty cookbook. (See below for that info.)

ngx_openresty must be required by one of my cookbooks (nginx, application_nginx?), and there appears to be an error in the version string, due to trailing '.'

'0.9.' does not match 'x.y.z' or 'x.y'

So, that's one issue.

But, what I really don't understand here is why it's trying to load ngx_openresty when I'm just using the tutorial cookbooks: ["apt", "aliases", "apache2", "networking_basic"]
Oh.  Wait, that must be an error coming from the opscode server.

Keep in mind that I'm new to Chef, so there's probably something obvious I'm just not getting.
