I try to use Augeas to generate configuration files but I have 2

Just for the record: what version of Augeas are you using ? And what
platform ?
I'm using the package from Debian testing (0.4.0).
- If I use the following code:

I have the folling error and the interfaces files is not generate :
/usr/share/augeas/lenses/interfaces.aug:76.16-80.67:Short split for concat

Yeah, that's an error in the lens since it makes a comment after the
interface mandatory; I'll look into fixing that.
I have to add a command to generate the files, it's not a very important
error but when we see the lences it seems that the comment is optionnal.
It absolutely should be
- My second problem is also with comment,
With the following code:
augtool> set /files/etc/network/interfaces/iface[1] lo
augtool> set /files/etc/network/interfaces/iface[1]/family inet
augtool> set /files/etc/network/interfaces/iface[1]/method loopback
augtool> set /files/etc/network/interfaces/iface[1]/#comment lo
augtool> save
Saved 1 file(s)
It generate the following file:
iface lo inet loopback# lo
Yeah, that's a problem with comment - it accepts whitespace before the
'#' when it parses, but when you write a completely new node out, it
doesn't add a comment.
To fix that, we probably have to distinguish between a comment that's an
entire line (in which case we don't want a space before the '#' by
default) and an end-of-line comment where we do want that.
ok. Thanks for your answer, if I have something pretty to fix this I
just let you know.
