Description

When using a newer Chef than exists in docker, installation of package perl-IPC-run (required to build the pg gem) fails on oracle linux 9. For example, kitchen suite access-14-oraclelinux-9 fails to converge without this patch with error:

       Recipe: <Dynamically Defined Resource>

Technically it still fails with this patch, because newer Chef doesn't have MD2 compiled into the embedded openssl (since 3263a96), which the system-provided libldap.so.2 expects because it is present in the system openssl. That is being addressed in RHEL-59715, and installing a patched openldap package after create but prior to verifying does result in success.

To work around the lack of a newer Chef in docker, I'm using the following environment variables in this branch with cinc workstation 24.8.1068:

CHEF_IMAGE=cincproject/cinc
CHEF_BINARY=/opt/cinc/bin/cinc-client
CHEF_VERSION=18.5.0
