I would like to attach a tarball with a simple cookbook demoing the issue in it. How do I do it?

Experienced the same issue with Chef solo after 0.7.16 => 0.8.6 upgrade. It looks like where Chef used to use paths relative to cookbook root to find suitable source directory, it now uses absolute paths
similar to this one:

/var/lib/chef/cookbooks/dkim/files/default/var/lib/...

Initial investigation suggests it uses RemoteDirectoryResource.path + source_file_path, and both seem to be absolute paths

Can one of you who is having this issue update this ticket with a resource that's triggering this for you?

Thanks to everyone who helped with tracking this down and testing - it's fixed, and I'm cutting 0.8.8 now.

Best,
Adam
