[DRE-maint] Bug#858265: chef: key management broken in apt_repository resource

[Christopher Huhn, GSI]

Package: chef
Version: 12.14.60-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream

The provider for the apt_repository fails to parse the repository signing key fingerprints on Stretch.
This patch on Github fixes the issue for upstream:
https://github.com/chef/chef/commit/d7ac39bb7a7f710726bfd1adcf32ea07e6cb711d

Please consider to backport the patch to the chef package.

Cheers
Christopher
