I "undid" this change:
[COOK-1039 016959e] "Undo" commit that changes python cookbook unrelated to COOK-1039
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
If this is an issue that should be fixed in the python cookbook, please do open a separate ticket to track it.
Thank you for contributing the fix for chef-client!
