Package: debsecan Version: 0.2 Severity: important I installed the debsecan cron job and then manually ran the command in the crontab, giving this error:
chianamo:~# su daemon -c '/usr/bin/debsecan --suite sid --mailto root --cron'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 753, in ?

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/debsecan/history.new'

chianamo:~# ls -ld /var/lib/debsecan/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2005-12-20 03:38 /var/lib/debsecan/
This means that the default crontab will not work. Please fix the
permissions on /var/lib/debsecan/.
