Public bug reported:

The defaults file states that "true" is the default of "CRON_DAILY_RUN".
I read that as, if I leave the setting alone, ie the empty string, it
will evaluate to "true". Instead it evaluates to "false", both when
called from the command line "/etc/cron.daily/rkhunter" and when called
from (ana)cron. Only when explicitly set to "true" in the defaults file,
the cron job will run.

I propose to change the wording of the comments in
"/etc/default/rkhunter" to state the need to set "CRON_DAILY_RUN" to
"true" to have it run from cron.
