Public bug reported: I'm trying to prepare nodes with cloud-init and chef 0.10 on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) (amazon) instances.
On simple package installation via chef recipe, e.g: package "munin-node" I'm running into a apt-get error: apt-get -q -y install munin-node=1.4.5-3ubuntu4 returned 100, expected 0 error. Which can be traced back to 'Bad file descriptor' error, from man-db. Same installation works fine without problems, when running chef without cloud-init. I could trace this error back to some env variables, which are still set while chef starts to run it's scripts. Unsetting these variables in the chef recipe solves the problem: ENV['DEBCONF_REDIR'] = "" ENV['DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND'] = "" package "munin-node" Does these variables still needs to be set, while executing the chef client?
