[chef] Re: berkshelf gem listed as a requirement in cookbook gemfile

[AJ Christensen < >]

Yo,

Sorry for the follow up.

It's worth mentioning the ChefDk includes gecode libs, pre-built, for
all supported target platforms, which greatly alleviates the
installation heat-cost of Berkshelf.

On machines where this (ChefDK) is not present and the prerequisite
environment variable and system libraries have not been configured, a
full installation of gecode from source will be automatically handled
by the gem (via bundle) installation.

cheers,

--aj
