Package: chkrootkit Version: 0.47-1 Severity: important On an etch system, chkrootkit sends me an email every day saying this:
/etc/cron.daily/chkrootkit: The following suspicious files and directories were found: /lib/init/rw/.ramfs This file is created by /etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh from the initscripts package, on which sysvinit, an essential package, depends, so chkrootkit should not report it as suspicious. Note: I don't use "Severity: serious" here because that would mean "if this bug is not fixed the package should be removed from etch", which of course I don't want to mean. However, I consider this bug important enough that we should really try to fix it before release, as a false positive every day because of an essential package is something like a joke. Would not be possible to have an exclusion list for files which should not be reported, as lintian has for its checks?
