CentOS 7.5, package audit >= 2.8.4, action reload does not exist in init-script

[isuftin]

It seems like the audit package version >= 2.8.4 for CentOS 7.x no longer supports the "reload". Using this cookbook, the service may not be installed. The error is shown below.

Tested v2.3.4, seems to be working

[isuftin]

Nope. I was wrong. Still broken on v2.3.4

This is fixed in the 2.4.0 release on supermarket now.
