Let's look at lita cookbook:`grep depends metadata.rb`:depends 'apt'depends 'build-essential'depends 'ruby-ng', '~> 0.1.1'depends 'redis2', '~> 0.5.0'However there is an option not to use ruby-ng and redis2 cookbooks, which is really useful since there are plenty of different 'ruby' and 'redis' cookbooks and cookbook developer should always let user use another cookbook to install dependencies.# dependency install type:## - auto: let the cookbook try to figure it out# - none: will be installed by other means and available in system path#default["lita"]["ruby_install_type"] = "auto"default["lita"]["redis_install_type"] = "auto"It doesn't make any sense to require those cookbooks to be uploaded to chef-server if I'm not going to use them:% knife cookbook upload litaUploading lita [0.0.3]ERROR: Cookbook lita depends on cookbooks which are not currentlyERROR: being uploaded and cannot be found on the server.ERROR: The missing cookbook(s) are: 'ruby-ng' version '~> 0.1.1', 'redis2' version '~> 0.5.0'It's a common problem for most cookbooks. Is there a good way to work it around?--
