Knife error uninitialized constant Chef::Knife::Ssh (NameError)

Hi

For any knife command I am using, I am getting the below error. If I
repeat the command 3-4 times it will then work. I noticed after I ran
gem update fog

So, knife is now useless in a production env. How do I resolve?
Again, this is for any knife command, not specific to the command I
used below.

knife cloudstack server create ‘role[nginx_server]’ …

Based on that line, I'd guess the knife cloudstack plugin isn't specifying its dependencies?
