Hey Daniel, 

Indeed, I had a number of things going on, among them an unpinned nodejs dependency.  I'm pretty well sorted now with our existing environment and I'm going to set up another client machine from scratch to be the one I talk to my new vpn chef server (until we cut over).  Will update on success or failure.

Thanks again!

I think `source_url` is a new addition to cookbook metadata that isn’t yet supported by the version of berkshelf you have.

This happens when you have a version constraint somewhere that says the nodejs cookbook has to be version ~> 2.2.0, but you’re pulling it from github and the version there doesn’t match that constraint.

Neither of these seem related to your bookshelf problems, FWIW.
