I ran rkhunter again, and then for good measure I aptitude --purged it, reinstalled, and ran again. And then I thought maybe the whole thing was compromised, so I purged it again, installed rkhunter 1.30 from sourceforge, and ran again. And I also ran chkrootkit. In all cases they showed nothing happening, except for warning me that some of my /bin executables had been replaced by scripts -- stuff like egrep, fgrep etc. So perhaps it was just a false positive. I'm going to read up on security stuff now, so maybe I'll have some idea how to proceed the next time.
