Thx for the suggestions Ian/Max, will def look at using hashes instead, but was able to incorporate Max's suggestion in our recipe for now, it works great, again thanks!

... or you can modify the array
node.normal_attrs[:packages_install_specific].reject! {|p| p[0] == "libicu-devel" }
--max

set[:packages_install_specific] = {
"js" => "1.70-8",
"icu" => "3.6-5.16.1",
...
}
Then you can do, eg, node.normal_attrs[:packages_install_specific].delete("js")

I'm probably not using the right terms, but lets' say I have the following:
set[:packages_install_specific] = [
["js","1.70-8"],
["icu","3.6-5.16.1"],
["libicu","3.6-5.16.1"],
["libicu-devel","3.6-5.16.1"]
]
The attrs looks like:
"packages_install_specific": [
[
"js",
"1.70-8"
],
[
"icu",
"3.6-5.16.1"
],
[
"libicu",
"3.6-5.16.1"
],
[
"libicu-devel",
"3.6-5.16.1"
]
]
...
Is it possible to delete the tuple ["libicu-devel","3.6-5.16.1"] programmatically in a recipe? I've tried using:
node.normal_attrs[:packages_install_specific].delete(:libicu-devel) rescue nil
But I probably can't refer to it as a key...Can someone shed some light on this? If someone can forward me to some docs I'd greatly appreciate it. Running 0.9.x (8 I believe), thanks in advance!
