Hello!

Some notes/to-be-investigated on enabling audit support in util-linux.

The audit support seems to only affect the hwclock and login
binaries/utilities (in v2.25).
In debian the login utility is not built/used from util-linux,
so in practise only hwclock is affected.

I found this message about audit support in hwclock (from 7 years ago):
"If you compile --with-audit the hwclock tool reports changes in sys/hw
clock to audit system. The real long-term and final solution is probably
add hooks for /dev/rtc to kernel, but it's not implemented yet."
Maybe the /dev/rtc hooks has appeared since?

There's also this administrative detail to investigate:
The util-linux package is Priority: required
The libaudit1 package is Priority: optional
Should libaudit1 priority be raised to required first?

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
