cfengine-2.0.0
Red Hat Linux 7.2


Excerpt from input file:

editfiles:
   Mymachine::
      { /etc/swinstall_serial_number
         AutoCreate

         BeginGroupIfNoSuchLine "1"
            AppendIfNoSuchLine "1"
            DefineClasses "swinstall_1"
         EndGroup

         BeginGroupIfNoSuchLine "2"
            AppendIfNoSuchLine "2"
            DefineClasses "swinstall_2"
         EndGroup
      }


When cfengine reads this config file, it behaves as expected except
that it only defines "swinstall_1", it never defines "swinstall_2".

I manually verified that the file '/etc/swinstall_serial_number' had
only one line:

$ cat /etc/swinstall_serial_number 
1

I also verified that cfengine is entering the correct BeginGroup
entry:
# cfagent --debug
[....]
Begin editing /etc/swinstall_serial_number
(Begin Group - skipping, line exists)
(Begin Group - no line 2)
Appending [2]
(End Group)
End editing /etc/swinstall_serial_number
[....]

But still swinstall_2 is not defined, swinstall_1 is, I know that
because there are a couple of "shellcommands" entries:

shellcommands:
   swinstall_1::
     "/bin/sh -c 'cd /mnt/software ; /bin/rpm -Uv perl-HTML-Tree 
perl-HTML-Tagset perl-HTML-Parser perl-HTML-Format'"

   swinstall_2::
     "/bin/sh -c 'cd /mnt/software ; /bin/rpm -Uv kernel-headers glibc-devel '"

But only the entry in swinstall_1 gets executed.


P.S.
  Any other ideas on how to configure cfengine to install software
  "on-demand" would be appreciated.
