I'm not Cfengine guru by any kind, but it seems like wrong syntax to me. Try
"foo" slist => @(bar); (parenthesises, not braces). By all means, Cfengine should have either been producing an error message or handling it correctly, while it actually shows signs of some memory corruption. 2010/11/25 <no-re...@cfengine.com>: > Forum: Cfengine Help > Subject: Re: "Duplicate selection of value for variable ..." messages > Author: zzamboni > Link to topic: https://cfengine.com/forum/read.php?3,19400,19407#msg-19407 > > Bug filed: https://cfengine.com/bugtracker/view.php?id=397 > > I just noticed another (maybe related) strange behavior.
