Key/Value inconsistency when setting values from two different hosts

[mbentley]

I am not sure if I am doing something unexpected but I have two clients and a self-hosted charm server. Everything seems to work as expected when I am only using one client but when I introduce a second client, things start to get out of sync if I initially set a value from one client and then later try to update the same key from the other. I am assuming that this workflow should work and I don't see why there would be a difference between using one client or many:

1. Host 1 sets the value of foo to bar and list k/v to show it:

$ skate set foo bar
$ skate list
foo     bar

2. Host 2 checks the k/v:

$ skate list
foo     bar

3. Host 2 changes the value of foo to bar2:

$ skate set foo bar2
$ skate list
foo     bar2

4. Host 1 performs a sync and then checks the list which should now show the updated value but doesn't:

$ skate sync
$ skate list
foo     bar

At this point, host 1 and host 2 are out of sync. If I perform a skate reset on both hosts, they both revert back to foo bar as the k/v.

I can see host 2 updating on the server side so I do not know why it seems to be out of sync and unable to be reconciled:

My apologies that this isn't the best example and that I don't have much else in the way of logs but I am not really sure what will be helpful from a troubleshooting standpoint.

It seems that if I do a delete and then a set, the updates work as expected so it seems that just doing a set when there is an existing key value set does not work as I would expect to just update the value.

I'm seeing the same issue.
