My suggestion would be to have the following /etc/security.local: It would be nice if audit-packages had a -m switch that caused it to: always exit with status 0 unless sending mail failed send mail if downloading fails or if there are vulnerable packages Then one could just put audit-packages -m in cron and have the right thing happen, more or less. Also, it would be cool to have a nagios plugin to check audit-packages freshness/status.
