Package: integrit Version: 4.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I collect and read integrit reports from several dozen machines every morning. It would be helpful if the cronjob sent reports with affected files listed in alphabetical order. When the reports are ordered one can rapidly scan each message (in Mutt, for example) since common changes (due to a cron-apt update, for example) appear always in the same relative locations in the reports.
The following "ed" script inserted near the end of /etc/cron.daily/integrit rewrites "$REPORT" just before it is sent: LC_COLLATE=c ed -s "$REPORT" 1>/dev/null <<EOF 1 /do update/+1 .,/^integrit:/-1 w ! sort -t: -k2 > "%.changes" .,/^integrit:/-1 d -1 . r ! cat "%.changes" ! rm -f "%.changes" w /integrit: checking for missing files/+1 .,/^integrit:/-1 w ! sort -t: -k2 > "%.missing" .,/^integrit:/-1 d -1 . r ! cat "%.missing" ! rm -f "%.missing" wq EOF -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (991, 'oldstable'), (991, 'stable'), (66, 'oldstable'), (33, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-vserver-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) integrit depends on no packages.
