I just upgraded from running 0.10.8 with ruby 1.8.7 installed on the system to
the omnibus 10.18.2. I have a recipe running chef_gem to install a gem and chef
can see that the gem is not in the omnibus rubygems, so it installs it. But it
installs it into the system rubygems. Even if I run chef-client again it sees
the gem is not in omnibus and then installs it in the system. If I remove
/usr/bin/gem then chef will install it inside omnibus. I thought chef_gem was
supposed to ignore /usr/bin/gem. Has anyone seen this, or know how to work
around it, or know what I may be doing wrong?

I've further tested the behavior with running the system recreate 20
times with vagrant - and it failed 7 out 20.
I found that the problem had to do with an intermittently available http://rubygems.org
So sometimes the gem install would succeed and other times not.
Not a lot chef can do about that - just for reference:
-- Chef - run output --

Then I dig deeper in the gem problem by executing the embedded gem manually

Maybe on a related note:
I know you can pass the -- -v , but how do version the
omnibus version?
Maybe something changed there ?

I seeing a similar behavior - Also to the other post on chef_gem with

At first run, this fails complaining it can't install the chef_gem.
On second run this works correctly.
