Parallel policy dependencies fail with frozen cookbook error

[t0rrant]

Description

When creating (at least) two policy files that include a common policy file, the push to the chef server fails with:

Uploading policy policy1-v1-2019-03-18-controller (1b1bb7c956) to policy group policy-group-a
Error: Failed to upload policy to policy group policy-group-a
Reason: (Chef::Exceptions::CookbookFrozen) Version 1.0.1 of cookbook mycookbook is frozen. Use --force to override.

ChefDK Version

ChefDK: 3.8.14-1

Platform Version

OS: Ubuntu 18.04

Replication Case

Create base policy, i.e: Policyfile.rb:

  name 'policy-v1'
  default_source :chef_server, '${local.chef-server}'
  run_list 'cookbook::default'
  cookbook 'cookbook', '> 0.0.0'

Create second and third policies, i.e:

Policyfile_policy1:

  name 'policy1-v1'
  default_source :chef_server, '${local.chef-server}'
  include_policy "policy-v1", policy_group: "policy-group", server: "${local.chef-server}"
  run_list 'cookbook::recipe1'

Policyfile_policy2.rb

  name 'policy2-v1'
  default_source :chef_server, '${local.chef-server}'
  include_policy "policy-v1", policy_group: "policy-group", server: "${local.chef-server}"
  run_list 'cookbook::recipe2'

Then install and push each one, the last one should fail:

$ chef install Policyfile.rb && chef push policy-group Policyfile.rb
$ chef install Policyfile_policy1.rb && chef push policy-group-1 Policyfile_policy1.rb
$ chef install Policyfile_policy2.rb && chef push policy-group-2 Policyfile_policy2.rb

Notes

I am not sure this is a bug with chefdk or with chef-server, starting here in hope to get in the right direction.

NOTE: CHEFDK BUGS ONLY

Moved from the chef-dk repo to here, but we will need to backport whatever fix we have to chef-dk as well
