Secure testing team - Feb 2012 - Bug#659839: aide-common: aide Never finds errors in the file system.

Package: aide-common
Version: 0.15.1-5
Severity: normal
Tags: security

I have installed aide-common on my desktop and Virtual Box servers running
debian stable. I had it installed on an older system, but when it was replaced
with  this new one, it appears to work a bit to well. It never indicates any
changes. I have tried to ?touch /bin/date? followed by aide.wrapper -C and
each time it returns AIDE, version 0.15.1
 ### All files match AIDE database. Looks okay!
 I have added files and moved files but on five different platforms, (4 Virtual
1 Physical) I have never received an error.
