We had the same requirement in our environment, that is, the ability to
purge against a single file copy rule. Attached is a patch file we're
using against 2.2.10 to support this kind of behavior. It works for both
local and server-side copy rules. Just apply the patch to 'src/do.c'.
Mark, if you'd like to integrate this into any future cfengine-2
maintenance releases I'll send an email to bug-cfengine.

Re: Problem with purge and failover in copy statement
Neil,
I came to te exact same conclusion :-) ...
So I tried to do some funcky class setting and set up a tidy behind, but
even there cfengine is failing on me ;-)
I can see in the debug output that the file is not there, he gives an
error but the classes are not set correctly so my tidy action is not
activated...
It seems like a trivial problem for cfengine, nevertheless I spended
already some time in investigating this ...
Regards,
Tom

I think that purge only works with
recursive copies.
