Hi John, Thanks for your note. I'm afraid I didn't phrase my original question very well; sorry for that. What had me confused was that I had not recently done any software updates!, and so had not done
/usr/bin/rkhunter --update but I don't think I made that at all clear in my email, sorry. (I did read the man page, but since I (believed I) hadn't initiated a software update I was confused; now I'm doubly confused because I'm wondering if there was a delay between an update and when I got the news... never mind) I was asking to the mailing list because I was wondering if rkhunter logs things like updates to the language files, with time stamps. At any rate thanks again for a very nice program!!
