furicle,

It looks to me that every security release would require an update to
the white list unless I'm mistaken. I just don't see this happening.
Flat out skipping the apps check will likely be more practical for
rkhunter's maintainer. It's been about a week since this was reported,
and the package still hasn't gotten the love it needs. I don't see
Ubuntu maintaining an up to date white list as something that, for
better or worse, is likely to happen. My thinking is, if the white list
regularly goes out of sync people will just get irritated by the false
positives and either disable apps checking themselves, uninstall
rkhunter, or just ignore all positives.
