1.3.0 beta 2 was tested with standard and custom layout with installs on a 
Linux Mandriva 2007.1
worked without errors.

The standard and custom removal also worked so well that here is the result of 
removal where /opt
pathway.

--------------------------------------cli screen----------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rkhunter-1.3.0]# sh installer.sh --layout custom /opt --remove
Starting uninstallation

Checking PREFIX /opt: exists, and is writable. OK
Removing installation files:
 Removing rkhunter.8: OK.
 Removing /opt/bin/rkhunter: OK.
 Removing /opt/etc/rkhunter.conf: OK.

Please remove any /opt/etc/rkhunter.conf.* files manually.

REMOVING INSTALLATION DIRECTORIES.....(my emphasis)
 Removing /opt/lib/rkhunter: OK.
 Removing /opt/share/doc/rkhunter-1.3.0: OK.
 Removing /opt/var/lib/rkhunter: OK.

Done removing files. Please double-check

---------------------------------------------------------

I have no problem with the advice to double-check but when I did, I found that 
the /opt/....conf
file was already removed by your script.

In fact all files were removed from opt leaving behind only the child folders 
in /opt
bin/  etc/  lib/  
share/ ..../share/doc/...../share/man/....../share/man/man8
 var/...../var/lib

and no files in any /opt subfolder.

I am not a programmer, but...Removing installation directories:........this is 
a fail. Maybe
someone thought that they were removing directories but only got around to the 
files?
Having a quick peek at lines like 696 & 704, maybe they were attempts at rmdir 
rather than rm?

This is not meant as a criticism because not being a programmer I do not know 
how hard it is to
double check everything.
