This is the root of the problem:
file_select implies a search - and the only way you can have a search is
either with depth_search or a wildcard in the filename
I believe this is also a bug, in that Cfengine should tell you when you have
a promise that cannot be satisfied, and requires a component that you have
ommitted.
Something very similar to this was reported in the bug tracking system with
ID 0000037, and repaired 2010-03-19 - so I have to ask if you are running
the latest version of Cfengine?
