Package: rkhunter
Version: 1.3.2-3
Severity: normal

It is impossible to store the database on write-protected media unless you use 
unionfs of aufs because rkhunter wants read-write access to the database 
directory even for a check only (no update).  I am using an SD card set to 
write protected most of the time and on read-write for updates.  I've had to 
use aufs to be able get rkhunter to do checks, which shouldn't be necessary.
