Public bug reported:

Please add the possibility to add a list of paths that are not searched
for sniffers.

fr example, I have a folder /var/backups/rsnapshot/ with hourly backups
of a large amount of my system.

Now chkrootkit searches through /var/, which is good, but I must exclude
/var/backup/ because searching through those millions of files takes
about half an hour on my 4 year old server.
