Root issue: chef-ingredient restriction in this cookbook is set to ~> 1.1, but ~> excludes 2.x builds. Either bump to ~> 2.0.0 or remove pessimism

... traced it further

[cheeseplus]

The pin was created purposefully because 2.x breaks with the cookbook as exists. We will be looking at what it would take to support 2.x changes but at present letting people use 2.x would just mean everything breaks.

[jackkordas]

I was able to manually download and untar chef-ingredient 1.1.0 with knife cookbook site download chef-ingredient 1.1.0 ( then untar it in cookbooks) The chef-solo run to install then works.

We are now using the latest chef-ingredient! Check the new release out.
