[chef] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 + omnibus chef 0.10.28 missing ohai in the path

[Tim Smith < >]

Pete,

A large number of my 12.04 systems are running the 10.28.0 Omnibus package.  Ohai is installed with a symlink at /usr/bin/ohai to /opt/chef/bin/ohai.  These were fresh installs of the Omnibus Deb on base 12.04 systems.  Out of curiosity though why aren't you migrating to the Chef 11 Omnibus package?  I was mid way into a migration from gems to the Omnibus package when I realized I should just go straight to Chef 11.  The effort involved in updating cookbooks to Chef 11 was fairly minimal.

Ohai (or not in my case) –

 

Anyone using the Omnibus deb version 0.10.28 for Ubuntu 12.04?  On clean install it seems the ohai gem stub wrapper is not being generated in /opt/chef/bin nor is it getting a symlink from /usr/bin/ohai

 

Ohai work since if I by hand create a wrapper (eg cp /opt/chef/bin/chef-client /opt/chef/bin/ohai and update to point to the ohai gem)  I am able to use ohai from the bash prompt.  Is this not supported in omnibus anymore?

 

Quick history we are moving from the apt deb packages to the omnibus version so we can take advantage of the latest updates sooner.

 

Any help or direction would be great.
