Tripwire is probably one of must-have utilities for many system
administrators. However, it is missing from almost all recent Red
Hattish distributions. IMO, probably due to the fact that source
compiles only on i386, and needs patches to compile almost every time
new major version of gcc is released. However, in absence of good
replacement, this is all we have. (IMO, other tools such as AIDE for
example, are not quite at the same usability level).
I've fetched SRPM from Fedora 3 extras repo:
http://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/extras/3/SRPMS/tripwire-2.3.1-21.src.rpm
Compiled it on CentOS 4.0, tested, and it seems to be working correctly.
Would this be a good candidate for including in addons, extras,
centosplus, or contribs repository? As far as I can see, Dag doesn't
include it in his repository, and Fedora Extras is, well, only for Fedora.
