Title:
  chef 0.10: package installation: returned 100, expected 0

Status in cloud-init:
  Expired
Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I'm trying to prepare nodes with cloud-init and chef 0.10 on Ubuntu
  11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) (amazon) instances.

  On simple package installation via chef recipe, e.g:
  package "munin-node"

  I'm running into a apt-get error:
  apt-get -q -y install munin-node=1.4.5-3ubuntu4 returned 100, expected 0 error.

  Which can be traced back to 'Bad file descriptor' error, from man-db.
  Same installation works fine without problems, when running chef without cloud-init.

  I could trace this error back to some env variables, which are still set while chef starts to run it's scripts.
  Unsetting these variables in the chef recipe solves the problem:
  ENV['DEBCONF_REDIR'] = ""
  ENV['DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND'] = ""
  package "munin-node"

  Does these variables still needs to be set, while executing the chef
  client?

  
  My cloud-config:

  apt_update: True
  apt_upgrade: True
  byobu_by_default: disable
  manage_etc_hosts: True
  hostname: hostname
  disable_root: true
  timezone: UTC

  packages:
   - ntp

  apt_sources:
   - source: deb http://apt.opscode.com/ oneiric-0.10 main
     filename: opscode.list
     key: |
          the key

  chef:
      install_type: "packages"
      server_url: "https://api.opscode.com/organizations/myorganization";
      node_name: "node name"
      environment: "dev"
      validation_name: "cloudcontrol-validator"
      validation_cert: |
          the cert

      run_list:
