I've had problems with the compressed database support in aide-0.7, but uncompressed databases work as normal. In terms of alternatives, the recent commits regarding mtree(8) are supposed to make it useable as a tripwire alternative, but I've no direct experience with using it as such and I can't quite recall if the changes made it back into 4.0-STABLE yet (I think so). There was an article on Daemon News <http://www.daemonnews.org>; about using mtree to perform tripwire like functions a couple of issues ago I think.
