Client should ignore checksum on files that are replaced

[[email protected]…]

Bcfg2 client should do auto-ignore of all Configfile and Symlink of the configuration that fail the checksum check of the package manager for any package that are/will be installed. This way sysadmin would not need to add Ignore tags to Pakcage every time they push a custom file to client.

this ain't an issue anymore with the trunk.

I suggest a close of this ticket

Finally here is a real test case :

have an install of the package firefox by bcfg2

 <Package name='firefox' />
 <Package name='firefox-2' />
 <ConfigFile name='/usr/lib/firefox/defaults/pref/firefox-branding.js' />

this will generate the following log:
