I figured this out on my own and I'm posting the solution in case
anybody else looks for it.
/etc/cron.daily/aide now contains the lines:
AIDEARGS="-V0"
....
aide $AIDEARGS --$COMMAND >"$LOGDIR/$LOGFILE" 2>"$ERRORTMP"
Changing it to
AIDEARGS=""
lets the aide command use its default verbosity setting, which includes
the list of changes.
Hope this helps someone else,
Adam
