Permission denied - stub_specification

[jamesdehart]

I'm not sure which repo to report this to. Here is what I'm doing:

RHEL 6.7 EC2 Host

1. Kitchen create (creates the Ec2 Host)
2. Kitchen verify ( 1st time - works)
3. Kitchen verify ( 2nd time - ERROR Permission denied)

Here is the error:

To resolve this issue I had to give everyone read access to the gemspec's.

$ chmod o+r /tmp/verifier/gems/specifications/*

Just not sure how these files were created in the first place. Anyone?

I saw the same thing and was able to resolve the error with the same work around. Any updates?
