import in update.conf

[Jason Sinnamon]

I have noticed with my version of cfengine (2.1.0b7) that anything I import in update.conf is also available to cfagent.conf.   This means I get errors about variables being redefined.  I could remove the import in cfagent.conf but want it to be obvious to others that this the file is being imported.

 

Is this normal behaviour ?   I tested it with a dummy file by importing in both and sure enough the same problem.  Why are variables in imported files a problem but not variables defined separately in both update.conf and cfagent.conf not ?

 

 

Many thanks...JS
