Can you prove that Cfengine corrupted the file? And can you show us the

Frans,

bundles and found that there was overlap with respect to this file. A

and cleaned up after (e.g. Finish in-progress transfers). Further, the cf2
behavior of copying to a temp file and then moving into place does still
