Error with berks install and windows: No such file or directory

[5f6b3fb8]

It seems like the docker-api-1.22.0 spec folder structure is nested with large directory names. The path is larger than what windows supports.

My dev machine is windows 2012 r2/virtualbox5/vagrant 1.7.4/chefdk 0.6.2.

metadata.rb has
depends 'docker', '0.43.0'

When I run 'berks install' I get the following error:

Resolving cookbook dependencies...

I too have started seeing this problem, I am using 0.37.0, I have a feeling it is related to changes in the docker-api gem. My first thought was windows path length limits.

Is there anyway to lock down the gem version in the docker cookbook?

My Windows box can't clone this Git repo for the same reason.

$ git clone git@github.com:bflad/chef-docker.git

Dupe of #351

This actually wasn't a dupe.

I've removed the spec and test directories from the vendored gems... that should get rid of the ridiculously long filenames.
