[chef] Chef 12 in ChefDK

[Brian Pitts < >]

Hi,

I ran into an issue [0] with ChefSpec caused by an incompatibility
between it and Chef 12. I was surprised to realized that ChefDK 0.3
bundles a number of different chef versions, including an alpha of
Chef 12. I tried forcing the removal of 12.0.0.alpha.2, but that broke
/usr/bin/chef. For now I switched away from ChefDK to get a working
ChefSpec and Chef combination.

Can anyone explain why ChefDK is using a prerelease version of chef
that isn't compatible with other gems it bundles?
