From http://likens.us/logs/%23chef.10-24.log:
12:19 <steph021> i get this error: /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/chef-0.9.12/lib/chef/knife/bootstrap.rb:126:in `run': uninitialized constant Net::SSH (NameError)
12:19 <steph021> i've installed net-ssh and net-ssh-multi. does anyone know how to resolve this?
12:23 <kallistec> steph021: looks like a bug. work around it with `require "chef/knife/ssh"` in your knife.rb
12:39 <steph021> kallistec: i put this into ~/.chef/knife.rb require 'chef/knife/ssh' but I still am getting the same error message
12:40 <kallistec> steph021: can you gist me the full stack trace?
12:49 <steph021> kallistec: sorry im not sure how to get a full stack trace, but is this what you need http://gist.github.com/643902
12:51 <kallistec> steph021: what if you put `require 'net/ssh'` in your knife.rb?
12:53 <steph021> kallistec: ok i think that fixed it
12:56 <steph021> kallistec: thank you
