Is the privdata.local file somehow a particular problem, perhaps becuase of its permissions? You should find it easy enough to make propellor read any existing file and only update the file when there are changes. But it seems to me your integrity checker would still go off whenever a new version of the file is legitimately reveiced. Perhaps it would be better to write a property to configure your integrity checker to not fire on this file? (I've thought from time to time about having rsync update the privdata.local file. Since it's unchanged in most spins, that would probably save network bandwidth.) """]]
