What’s the correct way to ensure that a library in cookbook A can reliably
refer to a method in a module declared in a library in cookbook B?
Is declaring the dependency on cookbook B in cookbook A’s metadata
sufficent? (It seems not.)
We’re experiencing load-ordering race conditions and I’d like to figure out
how to quash them once and for all.
Thanks,
–Michael

This should be sufficient, provided you’re on Chef 11.x and you do not have a circular dependency.

Good catch on the circular dependency; thanks.

Speaking of circular dependencies, I ran into a few of those (error on my
part due to a misleading Foodcritic warning) and was wondering if there was
a tool that would catch them along the lines of rubocop/foodcritic.
