    You may be able to get away with editing the specs to remove the specific version constraint, often it will just work with newer versions anyway.

    As for updating the package to work against the newer ruby libraries, they're now shipping IPS packages instead of the SVR4 ones so this will be more difficult and probably mean we'll need to roll our own. This may take a while.

    Do you mean that this error is being thrown because of the spec directory in my cookbooks?

    No, the specs in chef. So for example, this error:

    Could not find 'net-ssh' (~> 4.2) - did find: [net-ssh-5.0.2]

    If you search through the chef files for where it specifies ~> 4.2 which from memory means 4.2 or newer but not greater than 4.x, and change it to a value where 5.x (maybe just >= 4.2 I think) is permitted then you might it just works. I've done this before with various packages, developers tend to be on the conservative side when specifying dependency matches.

    Obviously it's a hack, but may get things working until the package can be updated.
