In VyOS 1.2.5 the same bug.

zsdc changed the task status from Open to Confirmed.May 9 2020, 8:43 AM
zsdc triaged this task as Urgent! priority.

The bug is produced because of deleted deprecated option in vtysh. Before FRR 7.3:

root@vyos:/home/vyos# vtysh -c "show ip community-list 10"
This config option is deprecated, and is scheduled for removal.
if you are using this please migrate to the below command.
'show bgp community-list <(1-500)|WORD> detail'
% Can't find community-list

Starting from 7.3:

root@vyos:/home/vyos# vtysh -c "show ip community-list 10"
% Unknown command: show ip community-list 10

We use grep for checking if community already exist: https://github.com/vyos/vyatta-cfg-quagga/blob/a7c1adbf93e6464f874a80eafe3515380c149d48/scripts/policy/vyatta-policy.pl#L49-L60
Therefore, in FRR 7.3 this check will always return positive result and configuration script try to delete nonexistent community list.
