Dear Maintainer,

I upgraded a host which functions as a samba active directory controller from
buster to bullseye. aideinit fails with a segfault:

root@atc-hq-dc2:~# aideinit
Running aide --init...
Segmentation fault
AIDE --init return code 139

Syslog shows:

I found someone with similar problems googling, but the suggestion here to
purge and re-install aide makes no difference -- same failure.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aide/+bug/1920649

aide-dynamic is not installed.

Interesting that I've upgraded at least 10 of our machines in the last month
or so and this is the first I have seen this problem. Let me know what further
info I can provide to help.

You should use aide-dynamic. The statically linked binary is broken on
bullseye.

See
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/aide/-/blob/master/debian/aide-common.README.Debian
"aide no longer statically linked" from the testing distribution.

Indeed, installing aide-dynamic instead of aide appears to fix the problem.

Thank you.
