Librarian-chef is problematic. Updating a single cookbook tends to update all that cookbook’s “requirements” as well. Since this can get you into dependency hell very, very quickly, I can’t consider it safe or suitable for production use.

if you need berkshelf then yes. alternatively. librarian-chef will not take a lot of time to install.

I’m noting that Berkshelf, in particular, is awkward to compile into pure chef client or chef-server deployments. Is there any reason not to simply install and use ‘chefdk’ for chef-solo clients, and avoid the lengthy compilation involved otherwise?
