Bernhard,
to keep indentation and everything else in your promises use "code" button (2nd
from the right). It can be guessed from your input that somehow the following
construction affects agent-wide "ifelapsed" setting:
package_list_update_ifelapsed => "240";
That guess needs to be tested and reconfirmed before filing a bug, though. What
I would suggest is to simplify your test case as far as it is possible, and if
the bug persists, report it. Otherwise, something must be changed in your
policies.

So, about code, if you may reproduce it with smth like
body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "apttest", "elapsedtest" };
}
bundle agent apttest
{
packages:
"apt"
package_method => apt,
package_version => "0.0.1",
package_select => ">=",
comment => "Get a regular update of available
packages";
}
bundle agent elapsedtest
{
reports:
linux::
"It works" action => ifelapsed("1");
}
body package_method apt
{
....
}
body action if_elapsed(x)
{
ifelapsed => "$(x)";
}
then it is bug in Cfengine, for sure. By the way, you didn't show us your body
action if_elapsed, didn't you?
