The latest cfengine 3.1.0b2 in SVN knows where redhat systems keep the

Hello Aleksey.
I bel
Look at "empty_file_before_editing". You need to know that cfengine doesn't
actually empty the file that you are promising - it makes a copy, does the
edits on the copy, and overwrites the existing file if it needs to. So when
you say "empty_file_before_editing", it starts the edits on a clean

Cfengine has no way of knowing that your new atom

It _is_ confusing, but the explanation is simple:
In one edit cycle, Cfengine considers the insertion of each line, one at a
