Package: rkhunter
Version: 1.3.2-6
Severity: normal

Since apt-get updating rkhunter to the most recent package, I get the following 
false
positive by e-mail each day:

Warning: Network TCP port 6667 is being used by /usr/bin/znc. Possible rootkit: 
Possible rogue IRC bot
         Use the 'lsof -i' or 'netstat -an' command to check this.

ZNC is a legitimate IRC bouncer program and I am using the version packaged for 
Debian.

Ideally, rkhunter would be fixed not to complain about this. Failing that, we 
should note the
problem in README.debian along with a workaround, if there is one.
