Chef Development Kit Version: 3.3.23

i confirm the fix is working

Desperately need this fix. And the worst part about this cookbook is we can't just point at your fork in Berksfile because it does some kinda precompile against the repo to make it into a Chef cookbook. And that process is not documented.

@coderanger are you able to merge this?

[karthanistyr]

@coderanger I would like this too, that would be great

[et304383]

@coderanger please merge this.

In the absence of this fix is there any workaround to this problem to get chef to run?

@gene1wood #144

This cookbook is essentially dead. Might as well start shelling out to pip install:

Example:

execute 'pip3.7 install boto3'

@et304383 good point. Ya, I'm converting now away

@gena01 thanks for contributing this fix.

Could you or @salsa-dev , offer any help, tips, or instructions for building poise-python with this fix? I'd like to try it out, but don't see a way from the merged code to a cookbook. Thanks!
