Hi all,

I'm creating a link and have move_obstructions set to false. If a 
file/directory already exists, I do NOT want to move it. Functionally, it 
works perfectly but from the move_obstructions docs: " if a file is 
blocking the creation of a directory, then normally CFEngine will report an 
error.".

In my case, it's not an error, it's working as expected. I wonder if this 
shouldn't be reported as an error but simply a notification or nothing if I 
specifically set : move_obstructions => "false";

I watch for errors and this ends up being a false positive. I was thinking 
of reporting a bug/feature request but thought I'd try here first if 
there's a way to avoid the error(s).

Thanks.
