HI,

I have a small problem understanding. In the log file 
/var/log/aide/aide.log I find the following entry at the end:

---------------------------------------------------
The attributes of the (uncompressed) database(s):
---------------------------------------------------

/var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz
  MD5       : oZyxR+WmpV9zEAT16eXulw==
  SHA1      : uspaVOdxG3jah11/zlCpCfv8IIY=

End timestamp: 2025-02-13 11:09:34 +0100 (run time: 6m 31s)

If I now unpack the compressed AIDE database file with:
    # gzip -dk aide.db.gz

and then create the checksum of this uncompressed database file using:
    # md5sum aide.db
      a19cb147e5a6a55f731004f5e9e5ee97  aide.db

    # sha512sum aide.db
  
f2cad77dbe003615977c21f30c8a92f0a8a8c3577d01b3e007f19b71f125b6c4c042933e84a9b47d2870a69372dfc0bc29c6bc8bb56d9380fedb8620a748a938 
  aide.db

I see checksums that do not match those from the log file. :/ Am I 
misunderstanding something here, or is something going wrong?

I'm a bit confused right now, but it's probably just PEBCAK again and 
I'm not understanding something correctly... :/
