Description

If you install rudder-agent on a machine with cfengine already install, there is no warning nor error.
It is only when you try to launch the agent that you see the socket is already in use.

The package rudder-agent should be marked in conflict with cfengine3 (Debian/Ubuntu main repo) and cfengine-community (Cfengine deb repo)

You should be able to run both, that's one of the goal of Rudder. That's why they uses different paths and different TCP Port (5308 for CFEngine, 5309 for Rudder)

This could be linked to #2117 which I could never confirm.

Jean, is it happening for the server or the agent ?

I only tried with an agent, I will gather make more tests and add informations here when it's done.

dpkg -L rudder-agent | grep cfengine | grep -v rudder
/var/cfengine
/var/cfengine/inputs

Ok I am not able to reproduce any conflict, you can reject this bug :-)
Just have a look at why /var/cfengine directory is listed as managed by rudder-agent package

Oh, you're absolutely right, "/var/cfengine/inputs" is listed in the dirs managed by the Debian package! I have no idea how this got here, and will remove it.

Thanks for checking this!
