chef-mongodb3 dependency metachef throws error

[sebfek]

I got following error when I add mongodb3 to my cookbooks dependency: https://gist.github.com/sebfek/3ac539d7c597520b695a

I run chef 12.6 here, so I don't know if this metachef dependency is still compatible with the current chef version.

Any idea?

Maybe related. was getting Librarian errors too. Even if recipe has no include_recipe "mongodb3::default", once cookbook "mongodb3" is added to Cheffile we get ERROR: Librarian::Error: Could not resolve the dependencies.

$ grep mongodb3 Cheffile
cookbook "mongodb3"
$ knife solo cook  10.0.2.107 -o "recipe[test]" 
Running Chef on 10.0.2.107...
Checking Chef version...
Installing Librarian cookbooks...
ERROR: Librarian::Error: Could not resolve the dependencies.
$ knife -v
Chef: 11.18.12

Found the fix when I ran

librarian-chef install --verbose

Clashing on runit 1.5.11 to 1.7.0. Found out I was missing a the ".git" extension which then updated runit version and fixed the problem.

cookbook "runit", :git => "https://github.com/hw-cookbooks/runit.git"

Hope this helps

is there a plan to fix this error? It only happens when I use chef-provisioning-aws. I wondering if there's a conflict between mongodb3 and chef-provisioning-aws
