Description

Cron now floods with mail, saying

WARNING: The file /var/rudder/cfengine-community/last_successful_inputs_update is older than 10 minutes, the agent are probably stuck. Purging the TokyoCabinet lock file... Done

Indeed du to a logical error, the file /var/rudder/cfengine-community/last_successful_inputs_update is updated only if the promises have actually been updated (and not only if the node could correctly connect to the node), resulting to a very often old /var/rudder/cfengine-community/last_successful_inputs_update file

In addition it tries to delete the wrong file: ${CFE_DIR}/state/cf_lock.tdcb.lock (typo in the extension).
I would also change the message to read the agent is probably stuck

To be clear - the above typos are not in the policies but in the check-rudder-agent script.
