My Chef dilemma

gistfile1.rb

# my problem is thus:
# I need to run the 'php::source' recipe before I run `pecl install yaml`, otherwise pecl isn't installed yet.

# My first attempts are going something like

include_recipe "php::source"

`pecl install yaml` # except this explodes because php::source hasn't been run *yet*

# So I tried getting rid of the include_recipe line and having a run list of:

["php::source", "zach::my_awesome_recipe"] #except this still fails because it's not running php::source first.
