msql-cookbook-fails

I created a folder for vagrant, edited Vagrantfile, created a cookbooks folder and   
    git clone https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/mysql.git    
    git clone https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/build-essential.git  
    git clone https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/openssl.git
and then vagrant up but chef failed.

Chef never successfully completed! Any errors should be visible in the
output above. Please fix your recipes so that they properly complete.

A fix is to include_recipe "apt" first. Don't know why this is needed. Guess it is a hidden requirement for the mysql and possibly the nginx module when using Ubuntu 12.04
