This bug looks similar to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765911 which got fixed in 1.4.2-0.3 by removing the /usr/sbin/prelink line from the config file.
> I've chosen to keep currently-installed version of "/etc/rkhunter.conf" That's a problem and won't work because the configuration file format has changed between 1.4.0 and 1.4.2. I don't think we necessarily can (or should) fix this. Users should accept the new config file and merge their changes manually. > I did not dig deeper but it looks like something is broken in postinst > configuration handling... This part of the postinst script could be made more robust to handle the case where the config file is missing: # Copy the passwd/group files to the TMP directory # to avoid warnings when rkhunter is first run. # This is normally done by the installer script. rkhtmpdir=$(grep '^TMPDIR' /etc/rkhunter.conf | sed 's/TMPDIR=//') [ -f $rkhtmpdir/passwd ] || cp -p /etc/passwd $rkhtmpdir >/dev/null 2>&1 [ -f $rkhtmpdir/group ] || cp -p /etc/group $rkhtmpdir >/dev/null 2>&1 Francois -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
