Run 'rkhunter --propupd'. It's not mention as a FAQ, but the man page
indicates when the '--propupd' option should be used:

   One  of  the  checks rkhunter performs is to compare various current
   file properties of various commands, against those it has previously
   stored. This command option causes rkhunter to update its data file
   of stored values with the current values.
