[chef] Re: Re: LWRP, append text to file only if it doesnt comtain it

[AJ Christensen < >]

That Chef::Util::FileEdit code is very antiquated (and bound to Chef
Core releases for bug-fixes) and probably makes up some if not most of
the logic encapsulated by Sean's line cookbook, although it is plain
to see that it does not re-use the Chef::Util code (IMO, the right
choice.)

I'd recommend the latter. Use whatever works for you.
