[wpkg-users] Host match disruptive changes in 1.2?

[Marco Gaiarin]

Really i've not understood the new ''host matching'' schema, or i'm
missing something, but something big.

I've switched to wpkg.js 1.2, and at the fist run on a test machine:

computer voldemort (really, a virtual machine, on my linux box lily; yes,
harry was my previous one ;) was on profile 'ced', but wpkg.js now
match profile 'defult'.

\\FILE\wpkg\hosts.xml contains:

	<host name=".+" profile-id="default" />

while //FILE/wpkg/hosts/ced.xml contains:

	<wpkg>
	    <host name="voldemort" profile-id="ced" />
	    <host name="neobe" profile-id="ced" />
	</wpkg>

What happens?! I've seen 'applyMultiple' option, but:

1) why break ''retrocompatibility''?!

2) how can i assign a single profile (applyMultiple=false) while having
 a ''default'' assigned profile?


Sorry, probably i've missed something. Thanks.
