inspect(&) returns result in parentheses

[nilssolanki]

In my project (using gulp-sass and node-sass), one of my dependencies must have update its peer-dependencies, because suddenly when calling inspect(&) I'm getting results like the following:

(.form,) instead of .form, which it used to be before.

I first thought that this is a list, so I tried extracting it with nth(inspect(&), 1) but this didn't seem to work.

I don't think this is a gulp-sass or node-sass issue, or am I mistaken?

Is this an intentional change, and if so, where can I find more information about it?

Libsass-version seems to be 3.3.5.

This is correct and intentional to match the output of official ruby sass compiler!
BTW. & is a list and inspect converts it to a string (in a way it can be convert back).

@mgreter this breaks a lot of my code...
Is this something that higher-level components would abstract back to the previous behaviour or is this intended to be exposed to the end users?

And how can I extract the values? nth(inspect(&), 1) does not seem to work.
Is there a recommended way to move from the previous behaviour to the new one without having to rewrite all the functions?

Some documentation would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

@mgreter help me out here please.
I've tried the following:

$selector-list: nth(&, 1);
@debug $selector-list;

and I still get:

(.form,)

Am I completely off track?

[mgreter]

OK, now you are on to something ...
The following is a bug in libsass:

form {
  sel: inspect(nth(&, 1));
}

Check #2020 for a workaround
