Package: tiger
Version: 1:3.2.2-8
Severity: wishlist

Hi.

The signature and permissions files should be updated automatically when the user does something in apt (especially when upgrading packages). Of course it would be necessary to run a manual check BEFORE upgrading packages,... or previous attacks wouldn't be noticed and the checksums/permissions of the hacked files would be stored (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=472295 for a similar problem with rkhunter).

It would be very nice,... if new signatures/permissions are only created (and the checks mentioned above only happen) when affected files are changed by the apt operation. e.g. if for example just /bin/ls would be watched by tiger, upgrading the gnome package shouldn't trigger signature/permissions updates.

Thanks,
Chris.
