Thank Richard,
I will do some tests with the diff mode.

For now, I changed /etc/chkrootkit/chkrootkit.conf:

MAILTO="journal"

- and added this on "/usr/sbin/chkrootkit-daily":

                if [ "$MAILTO" = "journal" ]; then
                    logger --file "$FILE"
                else
                    mail -s "$SUBJECT" "$MAILTO" < "$FILE"
                fi

for send the output to the journal.

    Because every morning I receive an email from
    "/etc/cron.daily/chkrootkit" that informs me of this.

    Of course I can deactivate the check but I would not like to lose
    other useful information for the security of the system.


And if you read  /etc/chkrootkit/chkrootkit.conf you will find there are various ways to stop that happening (without deactivating anything). look for the bit about diff mode.
