@darthdeus I've just recently stared to help out with this cookbook. Sorry it's taken nearly 4 years to get you a reply.

I think this has less to do with this cookbook and more about the type of shell that's being invoked by sudo su. I believe /etc/profile and /etc/profile.d are only sourced for login shells. When you invoke sudo su <user> you don't get a login shell. I believe if you were to switch to the user by running sudo -iu <user> you would have /etc/profile.d/* be sourced.

I've confirmed this in a test-kitchen VM that was generated by the integration tests of this repo. You can also determine which kind of shell you're in by running echo $0. If the shell name starts with a -, it's a login shell.

I don't believe this is a chef-user issue and will close this issue. If you think this isn't the case, please give me a shout and I'd be happy to reopen the ticket.
