Description

On some systems, the local copy of the inventory before sending it to the policy server fails miserably, with the following error message

New file /var/rudder/inventories/xxxx.ocs.cfnew seems to have been corrupted in transit (dest 246784 and src 420763), aborting!

It is because the copy is done in background, and something must have gone astray in the agent and backgrounding

Fixing in 2.6 since it's the latest stable, and it doesn't seem to impact 2.4 (which uses CFEngine 3.2 rather than 3.4)
