Package: rkhunter Version: 1.3.6-4 Severity: normal Since Feb 25th rkhunter displays warnings that http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/1.3/i18n/1.3.6/i18n.ver could not be found. I filed a bug report on http://sourceforge.net/p/rkhunter/bugs/106/ and the developer replied that rkhunter 1.3.6 is from 2009 and obsolete since long time and last patches are from 2010.
In fact, when squeeze was released in Feb 2011, rkhunter 1.3.8 was out which obsoletes all previous versions. Although Debian might have patched rkhunter 1.3.6 afterwards to include fixes from later versions rkhunter updates some files online. For this reason, sticking to old versions of rkhunter in oldstable works only for a limited time. Thus, as long as squeeze is still maintained rkhunter should be upgraded in order to avoid problems for users. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.9 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages rkhunter depends on: ii binutils 2.20.1-16 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii file 5.04-5+squeeze3 Determines file type using "magic" ii net-tools 1.60-23 The NET-3 networking toolkit ii perl 5.10.1-17squeeze6 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii postfix [mail-transpor 2.7.1-1+squeeze1 High-performance mail transport ag Versions of packages rkhunter recommends: ii curl 7.21.0-2.1+squeeze7 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS or ii iproute 20100519-3 networking and traffic control too ii lsof 4.81.dfsg.1-1 List open files ii perl [libdigest-sha- 5.10.1-17squeeze6 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii unhide 20100201-1 Forensic tool to find hidden proce ii wget 1.12-2.1 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages rkhunter suggests: ii bsd-mailx 8.1.2-0.20100314cvs-1 simple mail user agent pn tripwire <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/rkhunter.conf changed [not included] -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
