Look like chef team has fixed the issue. I can run kitchen setup default-centos65 without problem today

Hi all,

I am following the chapter 6 of the book 'Learning Chef' by Mischa Taylor and Seth Vargo.

First I ran this command kitchen init --create-gemfile to create a set of chef files.

Then I modified the .kitchen.yml to contain these lines 

---
driver:
  name: vagrant

provisioner:
  name: chef_solo

platforms:
  - name: centos65
    driver:
      box: learningchef/centos65
      box_url: learningchef/centos65

suites:
  - name: default
    run_list:
    attributes:



After I created the instance, I ran chef setup   and I got these output and error messages:


$ kitchen setup default-centos65

So what is wrong with the setup?
