Package: rkhunter Version: 1.4.2-6+deb9u1 Severity: important Hello,
i can run rkhunter but any update of it fails. rkhunter --update Invalid WEB_CMD configuration option: Relative pathname: "/bin/false" When i look in the config i really find this senseless pathname: # This allows the user to use a command other than the one automatically # selected by rkhunter, but still one which it already knows about. # For example: # # WEB_CMD=curl WEB_CMD="/bin/false" When i comment out the above line then the update starts but fails again: rkhunter --update [ Rootkit Hunter version 1.4.2 ] Checking rkhunter data files...
