Using the chef-client that comes with ChefDK is fine. They’re just not 
released in lockstep, so you’ll have to wait for a ChefDK with client 12.4 in 
it.

Installing both can be problematic since they both symlink a few of the same 
things into /usr/bin, though you can get around this if you absolutely must.
