Re: Re: How to join multiple parts of one data container

Michal,

  It is indeed strange i got it working but I think you had the same 
solution:
  * "level2_single" data => mergedata('[]', "repos[ubuntu_16][hwraid]");

and the second one does not make sense for me `level1_serialized` 
because the keys for me get override because they are the same

What is the main difference that level 1 returns:
  * keywords with hashes --> debian --> { values } => I assume a 
getlist function()

level2 is only returning
  * keyword:value => want is not a list somehow
