Those lines just mean that the attributes that aide will store in
aide.db for that file have changed. This is most likely caused by a
change in aide.conf.

For changed attributes of the files, that is the case of course. For
changes of the number of attributes present in the aide.db this is just
a warning because you should have anticipated this when changing the
aide.conf file. Why spell out in detail what you probably already know
and changed intentionally?
