The gluing lemma for closed sets states:
Given a finite closed cover $\{A_i\}$ of a topological space $X$, together with continuous maps $\{f_i : A_i \to Y\}$ into some other topological space $Y$, there exists a unique continuous map $f : X \to Y$ whose restriction to each $A_i$ is equal to $f_i$.
Question: What is a good and simple counter-example when the gluing lemma fails in the case that $\{A_i\}$ is infinite, but countably so.
My attempt: I have only been able find a silly counter-example: let $\{A_\alpha\}$ be the collection of all points of $X = [0,1] \subset \mathbb{R}$, and let $f_\alpha = 0$ for all $\alpha$ except for $\alpha = \alpha_0$, for which $A_{\alpha_0} = \{0\}$ and $f_{\alpha_0} = 1$.
