Public bug reported:

I just ran realized this line, "if failed checksum then unmonitor", in
/etc/monit/templates/rootbin and /etc/monit/templates/rootstrict is
causing me grief.

Basically if one updates the packages that are using these templates
they will become unmonitored which seems suboptimal.

Monit is probably not the tool to be using as an IDS. I am considering
these options:

"if failed checksum then alert"
- basically keep alerting about the checksum until the checksum is updated, a 
process that is not well documented.

"if changed checksum then alert"
- alert on changed checksum, checksum automatically updates as of Version 
5.16.0.
