Hi,
I believe this is because `invoke` (actually, `_execute_command`)
cannot be called in a nested fashion, as I just wrote in reply to your
suggestion to remove `require`. Where I suggest to remove `invoke` and
integrate it into "@depends".
I actually sort of expected this when I wrote the "call chain"
mechanism, but I left `invoke` behind in spite of it.. Previous to the
call chain I made connections hashable and reworked `_connect` to say
if it actually connected etc. But that got very hairy, so I added call
chain instead (which is closer to how it works when you supply a list
of commands to the fab command).
I hope this'll solve the problem.
Best regards,
Niklas
