Package: changetrack (4.3-3+lenny1) [security]

configuration-file change tracker

A program to automatically monitor changes to a set of files. If files are modified one day, and the machine stops working correctly some days later, changetrack provides information on which files were modified, and thus helps locate the problem. If you tell changetrack to use either the line editor ed or The Revision Control System (RCS), you can recover files to any previous stage. If you do not want to install Perl, try out the filetraq or diffmon package.
