Hello, I'd like to enable the summarize_changes feature by default in aide 0.16. The summarize_changes feature has been introduced in aide 0.14 and is described in the aide.conf man page. The advantage of this feature is that you can see at a glance what attributes of an entry has been changed and why the other attributes aren't not reported as changed (because it has been ignored, it has been recently added or removed, it has been not checked at all or it has been really not changed). The information why a attribute is not reported as changed is only available with summarize_changes enabled. The disadvantage is that the feature needs 13 to 17 columns (depending on compile options) instead of just 7 columns for the word "changed". Any comments/objections? Thanks Hannes |

Nobody has objected, so I've pushed the required changes to git (01675cf). Greetings Hannes |
