This might not be the most efficient way, but the only way I know of right now 
is to download the latest snapshot:

http://www.ossec.net/files/snapshots/  (Thanks Daniel for this info the other 
day)

and either run the install script or expand it and copy the source directory 
files:

src/rootcheck/db/rootkit_files.txt

to the following:

var/ossec/etc/shared/rootkit_files.txt

and perform /etc/init.d/ossec restart

Be sure that the following entry is in ossec.conf, of course:

<rootcheck>
    <rootkit_files>/var/ossec/etc/shared/rootkit_files.txt</rootkit_files>
</rootcheck>

Hope this helps... if anyone sees any errors in what I have conveyed, please 
correct me.
