Chef Client 11.10.0 Release
// Chef Blog
Ohai chefs,
Today we are releasing Chef Client 11.10.0. This release contains some bug fixes and lots of contributions from our awesome community. Check out our release notes for the highlights of this release.
This release's MVP is Nikhil Benesch with his fix for CHEF-4725. Nikhil has resolved the issue of output buffering while running Chef with Vagrant by diving into the internals of logging in Chef. Thanks for the awesome contribution Nikhil.
Also in our last release announcement, we've forgot to mention the MVP of OHAI 6.20.0 release Paul Rossman. He made Ohai Google Compute Engine (GCE) plugins compatible with the new metadata APIs. Thanks a lot for your contribution Paul.
As usual you can get this release from our install page or with install.sh:
curl -L "https://www.getchef.com/chef/install.sh" | sudo bash
