Because LoadError isn't an Exception, the code block for handling it never catches it.

>> LoadError.is_a?Exception
=> false

if @new_resource.password
begin
require 'shadow'
rescue Exception => e
Chef::Log.error("You must have ruby-shadow installed for password support!")
raise Chef::Exception::MissingLibrary, "You must have ruby-shadow installed for password support!"
end
shadow_info = Shadow::Passwd.getspnam(@new_resource.username)
@current_resource.password(shadow_info.sp_pwdp)
end

should be rescue LoadError
