Issue about how to add a block into profile?

I have to write a rbac script to add something into a role's profile, this script will be executed for many times, during this script, it will add a block into the profile.
if the profile exists, it should check the block has been there, if, just replace it with the latest settings, take an example here:
if [ -r /it/etc/envinit ]; then
. /it/etc/envinit
fi
The block upon should be added into the profile, customer may modify this profile, it must be a strict check that there is no duplicate lines like that settings. How should I do to check that ?

what if there is a blank line or comment line added by customer among that block? what if some spaces added into the lines different as the original?
Can anyone give me some sugguestion?
Thanks a lot.

PROFILE-MANAGER(1)					      General Commands Manual						PROFILE-MANAGER(1)

NAME
profile-manager - starts the gui for configuring the metadata used by desktop-profiles SYNOPSIS
profile-manager DESCRIPTION
The desktop profiles package needs metadata about the available profiles in order to decide when to activate which profiles. This metadata is contained in the .listing files placed in the /etc/desktop-profiles directory. This convenience script will start a graphical interface for configuring that metadata. The gui is a kommander script, so you need to have the kommander package installed for the gui to work (the script will check if the neces- sary prerequisites are present, and tell you what's missing if necessary). OPTIONS
There are no options FILES
/etc/desktop-profiles/*.listing - Files containing the metadata about installed profiles BUGS
The gui currently barks at profile metadata containing a single quote in the description. AUTHOR
