Hi Ove,
I'm pretty sure this will result in convergence problems when you would
do it in one step. First CFengine will copy over all the *.template
files from your source, and move them into place by removing the .template.
This would result in cfengine copying over the files from the source on
every run since the local destination files are gone (every run it will
compare the local copy against the remote copy and decide if it needs
updating)
