Package: chkrootkit
Version: 0.48-8
Severity: minor


Running Lenny in a Xen VM at Rimuhosting.com the strings-static
program from chkrootkit triggers the following warning that can
be seen in dmesg.


  ***************************************************************
  ***************************************************************
  ** WARNING: Currently emulating unsupported memory accesses  **
  **          in /lib/tls glibc libraries. The emulation is    **
  **          slow. To ensure full performance you should      **
  **          install a 'xen-friendly' (nosegneg) version of   **
  **          the library, or disable tls support by executing **
  **          the following as root:                           **
  **          mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled                    **

However this is misleading as the libc6-xen libraries are 
already installed and there is no /lib/tls directory, viz:

csamuel:~# ls /lib/tls
ls: cannot access /lib/tls: No such file or directory

Try to run ldconfig from root and reboot your vps. Anyway this isn't a
chkrootkit issue, probably it is related to the 2.6.16.38-xenU Rimuhosting
kernel, or dom0 kernel.


Closing this bug, but let me know if ldconfig fix your issue :)


Cheers,
Giuseppe.
