This fails when executing via vagrant on an Ubuntu (11.10) development system as chef tries to execute a 'chown' on the NFS client, which is not permitted by the Ubuntu NFS server even though all client uids (including root) are mapped to the same uid on the server, alas. I am guessing the Max OS X NFS server allows the chown, as no owner uids will be changed by the chown.

Thanks Glen!

I actually had to change this to use root for OSX. I am going to pull this down and play with it when I have a chance. I will see if I can get it working for both platforms.

Damn, I was afraid of something like that. I'll poke around as well to see
if I can come up with a different workaround. I also still need to upgrade
to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - I doubt the behaviour is different in 12.04, but it's
possible.
