berks not working on OS X after upgrading to 0.10.0-1

[pkyeck]

I followed these steps to uninstall v0.4.0 + also removed the ~/.chefdk folder.
But after installing the v0.10.0-1 I get the following error when trying to berks --version:

$ berks --version

@mgdevstack also mentions the same error in #597.
A bit frustrated that there is not a "safe" way of updating the chefdk :(

Do you happen to have a config file under ~/.berkshelf/config.json ?

[pkyeck]

nope, but a couple of folders:

same here...

Ok, after taking a closer look at the stack trace, it appears that Berkshelf via Ridley via buff-config doesn't like your knife configuration file.

https://github.com/berkshelf/ridley/blob/v4.3.2/lib/ridley/chef/config.rb#L12-L31
https://github.com/reset/buff-config/blob/v1.0.1/lib/buff/config/ruby.rb#L30

Based on the error it seems to be finding a reference to the Chef class in your config.

@pkyeck can you confirm this hypothesis?

[pkyeck]

yes, that was the culprit. commenting that out fixes the problem and everything is working again.

thanks for the support.

Probably worth filing a bug with berks about making this error case more clear. But I'm closing here since that's not really relevant to ChefDK
