Comment 1 for bug 157858

I can confirm the bug.

A fresh install of aide (after --purge) leaves the files

10_aide_hostname
30_aide_apache2
30_inn2_vars
31_aide_amanda-server
31_aide_apt
31_aide_ifupdown
31_aide_torrus
70_aide_dev

without the necessary execute-flag in directory /etc/aide/aide.conf.d/

Thus, the generated aide.conf.autogenerated includes shell-code, which aide fails to parse.

This renders the package out-of-the-box unuseable.

Thanks for considering this report.
