But it seems like the only relation to chef-provisioning is that it is a recommended way to use consul-cookbook (via cluster.rb).  Indeed the Usage docs for consul:\r\n\r\n```\r\ngem install chef-provisioning chef-provisioning-fog\r\nexport CHEF_DRIVER=fog:AWS\r\nchef-client -z cluster.rb\r\n```\r\n\r\ndoes not use the chef-provisioning cookbook -- it uses a simple gem install.  So it seems odd to make installing the chef-provisioning cookbook a requirement for using consul-cookbook.\r\n\r\nIf `suggests` is broken, perhaps there is an alternative keyword like `recommends` that would work instead?  Or maybe the chef-provisioning cookbook doesn't belong in metadata.rb at all?"}}
