The pessimistic version matching breaks, because the rsyslog cookbook has switched major versions.

I changed ~> to >= to get it to work in the metadata. I can do a PR, but I'm not 100% sure that's the correct way.

https://github.com/chef-cookbooks/bluepill/blob/178239cdf2ee77d122294df833a78a72394ff3d6/attributes/default.rb#L18

Value node['languages']['ruby']['bin_dir'] is nil. If workaround https://github.com/chef-cookbooks/bluepill/blob/178239cdf2ee77d122294df833a78a72394ff3d6/.kitchen.yml#L24 is removed, then test kitchen fails with error

Errno::ENOENT

Thanks for the work already done by #36

I would really appreciate releasing version 4.1.1 to make it available in chef supermarket - chef 14 compatibility is urgently needed.

Using git fetcher is not possible for production systems.

Thanks a lot

By not locking the rsyslog cookbook version in metadata.rb, Berkshelf will upgrade to the latest rsyslog 3.0.0 cookbook (released on 11/10/15) which now depends upon the compat_resources cookbook. The compat_resources cookbook only works with Chef 12+.

Need to either lock your metadata.rb version and/or bump the version number here so that you have versions compatible with chef 11+ and chef 12+, or decide to label as only compatible with chef 12+.

Is it possible to use this with rbenv? Or am I better off configuring it myself?

Thanks!

see comment in d6ecce2#commitcomment-16259521 not sure if this was wanted, but if it is, README need to be updated
