[chef] Re: Re: dhcp cookbook error: FATAL: NameError: uninitialized constant Chef::DSL

Yep missed the version there..  I've already fixed in develop branch on github, but I think I am going to make the cook chef11 only as I want to move to use_inline_resources. Anyhow I'll be trying to get specs and some kitchen on this cook up to speed with whats modern and cut another community release.

Looks like a cookbook bug. The author is trying to guard for some changes we made in Chef 11, so the version check should be:

   Chef::Version.new(Chef::VERSION) <= Chef::Version.new( "11.0.0" )

You can get in touch with the author here: https://github.com/spheromak/dhcp-cook to file a bug report or submit a patch.
