That totally fixed my problem.

In hindsight I might have been able to solve this myself had I read the release blog post for Ohai 7, specifically the section labeled "Attribute name-based user interaction.”

Thanks, Julian!

I suspect that the attribute semantics have changed to mean the
'provides' in the plugin, rather than the name of the plugin itself.
The following work:

ohai 'reload' do
plugin 'etc'
end

or

ohai 'reload' do
plugin 'current_user'
end

I haven't read the code to see why this is the case and/or if it's intentional.
