Hi,
I have noticed a different behavior when using the syslog_format or not
[root at otvmi613s aide]# aide -C -Breport_quiet=no -Bsyslog_format=no
Start timestamp: 2019-11-18 13:47:23 +0100 (AIDE 0.16)
AIDE found NO differences between database and filesystem. Looks okay!!

Number of entries:        89738

[root at otvmi613s aide]# aide -C -Breport_quiet=no -Bsyslog_format=yes
[root at otvmi613s aide]#

If there is no differences, Aide says so whithout syslog_format but says nothing at all when this format is used.
It's look like syslog_format=yes implies  report_quiet=yes
Is it the intended behavior ?
Is there a way to get a message when everything is ok with the syslog format ?

Best regards
Philippe
