Well, yes, it would be quicker to have cfengine make multiple passes, but then you get into the question of "how many" passes are required... (answer: if there are N uncleared class definitions, it may take N passes) My main point was that theoretically, nothing breaks by stopping at 2 passes, or even 1 pass. An obvious optimization could be to continue running until no class is undefined in that pass (and/or up to a configured numerical limit.) --Joe _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
