To complement the following verify options:
[--nolinkto] [--nofiledigest] [--nosize] [--nouser] [--nogroup] [--nomtime]
[--nomode] [--nordev] [--nocaps]
I would like to suggest the following new options:
[--noconfiglinkto] [--noconfigfiledigest] [--noconfigsize] [--noconfiguser]
[--noconfiggroup] [--noconfigmtime] [--noconfigmode] [--noconfigrdev]
[--noconfigcaps]
The implementation should be fairly self explanatory, if --noconfigfiledigest
is requested, the intended behaviour should be that the filedigest check is not
performed for files that are marked as %config
The rationale:
rpm -Va is a quick and powerful way to check that a system is in a good/healthy
state.
I wish to use it for system monitoring checks, but the command currently
produces too much output to be feasible.
My intended invocation would be rpm -Va --nomtime --noconfigfiledigest
--noconfigsize.
I have implemented similar functionality to the above in perl and python
scripts and believe this would be a beneficial addition to the rpm cli tool
