Package: rkhunter
Version: 1.3.0-1
Problem: The --propupd option is no longer valid, so dpkg fails to update
the package because this option is called for in the install script:
Setting up rkhunter (1.3.0-1) ...
Updating the file properties database:
Fatal: Invalid option --propupd
dpkg: error processing rkhunter (--configure):

Which is now done
Thanks for confirming.

This would be a general bug for (almost ?) all Debian packages. It is
not possible to know what the sysadmin has done with his system.
However, I have changed the postinst script so that the correct path to
the rkhunter script is specified (/usr/bin/rkhunter --propupd). This
will avoid such issues in the future.
Cheers,
Julien
