Unexpected duplicate multi_select drop down component rendered

What is the timeline for the updated core to be incorporated into main?

I don’t have any exact dates, but the current plan is to do this work in Q3 of this year.

Unfortunately I could not get it to work without running into the same issue mentioned above

Hmm, I might be missing something, but when using this form (the second one you linked) I cannot seem to re-create the issue. The repeat always had the proper entries even when I followed the original re-creation steps (select ‘rural’ for the location type, and both available districts, etc). The district names were not being properly displayed for the sm_district_direct_main_places question, but that was just because the district_ calculate had the wrong relevant condition (I think it should be ${is_rural}=0).
