Package: aide
Version: 0.13.1-10
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
after every reboot aide reports >400 changed files. These have the form:
changed: /dev/.udev/names/vcsa6/\x2fclass\x2fvc\x2fvcsa6
since recent udev stores the path to the devices sysfs representation
there. Attached patch fixes this by escaping the backslashes in the
find expression of 70_aide_dev properly. Additionally it escapes dots to
not cause false matches.
The bug probably deserves higher severity since it makes aide mostly
unusable in lenny on systems using udev.
Cheers,
-- Guido
