This bug doesn't deserve a critical severity[0], I lower it to normal
for the reasons described below.

the Debian package doesn't install anything in /usr/local, I think your
issues come from the fact you have previously installed rkhunter from
the tarball source.

Indeed, we have moved the scripts to /usr/share to comply with FHS
standards (arch independent scripts).
This was done in 1.2.8-4 release, which introduced a new configuration
variable in /etc/rkhunter.conf (SHAREDIR which defaults to /usr/share)

Again, this is due to the old manual installation in /usr/local/.
Your path most probably gives priority to /usr/local/bin which is the
default in /etc/profile.

This means you call /usr/local/bin/rkhunter and NOT /usr/bin/rkhunter
installed by the Debian package.

Thus, please, uninstall any previous rkhunter and try again running
rkhunter --update.

Cheers,
