There is something very strange going on because aide seems to think
that all these files have the same inode as /var/log/aide of the
previous aide.db:

Then the next lines suggest /var/log/xdm.log in the aide.db.new has the
same inode as all these files in the old aide.db:

Can you upload the aide.db and aide.db.new that produced this output to
ftp.vdberg.org ? (Also upload a new set of error messages if you do not
have the original aide.db files.)
