Doc Text:
Fixed rules related to AIDE configuration Rule `aide_build_database` no longer requires the existence of the `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.new.gz` file which contains the freshly generated AIDE database. The reason is that this database isn't needed for AIDE to work, only the installed database at `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz` is needed by AIDE. Users can install the freshly generated database by moving the file from `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.new.gz` to `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz`. Previously, the rule required the existence of both `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.new.gz` and `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz` in order to pass. Now, it requires only the existence of `/var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz` in order to pass. Rule `aide_periodic_cron_checking` has been changed to be less strict on entries in `/etc/cron.daily` and `/etc/cron.weekly`. This allows administrators to schedule the `aide --check` command with additional wrappers while staying compliant with the rule.
