I am trying to install specifically gcc version 4.1.2 through recipe.

I tried package with version but it fails while bootstrap as it says version is expected to be String !

package “gcc” do action :install version :“4.1.2 20080704” end

Secondly I tried in attributes: default[‘gcc’][‘version’] = “4.1.2”

but looks like it have no effect (or this may not be right way!)

Please help me to install specific version of gcc through chef recipe.
