Opscode Chef 0.10.6 RC2 packages are now available for both RHEL5 (i386/x86_64) and RHEL6 (i386/x86_64) based distributions. The packages are currently in testing, not recommended for production environments.
Assuming you have Chef 0.10.4 from RBEL, you can upgrade to 0.10.6 RC2 following these steps:
1. Run “yum upgrade” enabling RBEL5/6 testing repo:
yum upgrade "rubygem-chef*" --enablerepo rbel5-testing (for RHEL5 distros)
or
yum upgrade "rubygem-chef*" --enablerepo rbel6-testing (for RHEL6 distros)
2. Restart the Chef services when upgrading a Chef Server installation:
for svc in server server-webui solr expander
do
sudo /etc/init.d/chef-${svc} restart
done

Are you going to support 10.8? Please so, as your system ruby provides selinux support that the Opscode omnibus ruby does not.
Hey Peter,
Sure, I will.
Bear in mind that 0.10.8 doesn’t fix/add anything for linux users so you can safely install 0.10.6. Nothing to gain with 0.10.8.
Are you going to support 10.10? your work is really useful I really like your packaged stuff it makes life so much easier.
