integrit (4.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * integrit 4.0 breaks db compatibility with versions 3.x and upstream has chosen not to support previous formats for the sake of simplicity. If you need to compare old dbs, this Debian package ships the integrit program from version 3.05 as /usr/sbin/integrit3. Migration to 4.0 can be performed safely with a two-cycle update: create a new integrit 4.0 db with the same configuration file but different db locations, check-update the old db with integrit 3 and double-check for changes. The old integrit 3 db can now be removed. See /usr/share/doc/integrit/README for details. -- Gerrit Pape Mon, 09 Oct 2006 13:27:00 +0000 integrit (3.05-1) unstable; urgency=low * integrit now treats symbolic links similarly to regular files, in that it computes an SHA-1 checksum for them, but not for the file contents, but rather for the name in the symlink (using readlink()). Then, if a file remains a symlink, but points to a different target, that's flagged as an "SHA-1" change to the file. This means integrit will report changed checksums for symbolic links when comparing against databases created with integrit version 3.02.00; the databases should be re-created manually with this version, e.g. # rm /var/lib/integrit/*.cdb # /etc/cron.daily/integrit & -- Gerrit Pape Sun, 25 Sep 2005 22:15:17 +0000
