Package: chkrootkit
Version: 0.57-2+b5
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I did a default installation of 'chkrootkit' without installing the recommended
packages.
* What was the outcome of this action?
I received an email with:
Today's run produced the following output:
--- [ BEGIN: cat /var/log/chkrootkit/log.today ] ---
chkrootkit: can't find `strings'.
--- [ END: cat /var/log/chkrootkit/log.today ] ---
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I would expect, that 'chkrootkit' would run without error. For this the package
'binutils' should be a dependency of 'chkrootkit'.
