Hello chefs,

I was going to start using Bundler on my cookbook[1] to ensure the specific versions of each  
system is working with the future collaborators. But when adding a Gemfile and get the bundle on  
vagrant can't detect Virtualbox

$ kitchen converge  
kitchen-----\> Starting Kitchen (v1.1.1)

# Vagrant could not detect VirtualBox! Make sure VirtualBox is properly installed. If VirtualBox is installed, it may be an incorrect version. Vagrant currently requires VirtualBox 3.2.x. Please install the proper version to continue.

---- End output of vagrant --version ----  
Ran vagrant --version returned 1

and if I lock the vagrant version to \>=1

I get the following  
$ bundle  
bundleFetching gem metadata from [https://rubygems.org/](https://rubygems.org/)........  
Fetching additional metadata from [https://rubygems.org/](https://rubygems.org/)..  
Resolving dependencies...  
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "net-scp":  
In Gemfile:  
vagrant (\>= 1) ruby depends on  
net-scp (~\> 1.0.4) ruby

```
test-kitchen (>= 1) ruby depends on
  net-scp (1.1.2)

```

If i dont force the version of vagrant its install 0.5.4 with does not use the "~" it uses the  
net-scp \>= 1.0.2 which sudently makes it OK, lol.

Withou bundler it all works like a charm, why doesn't bundler use the 2 versions of the gem  
like normal gems do?

Vagrant is not a gem any longer.

Latest non-gem packaged Vagrant from [vagrantup.com](http://vagrantup.com) is 1.4.3.

Hello Erik,

So this its a test-kitchen issue right ?  
I dont know why bundler forces me to add the gem to the gemfile.

Looks to me like you have vagrant in the Gemfile. This isn't needed. Since  
you're using test-kitchen you should be able to work with just two lines  
in the Gemfile:

gem 'test-kitchen'  
gem 'kitchen-vagrant'

Optionally, you can add version constraints.
