Hi, sometime ago I downloaded the rkhunter-1.4.4 tarball from SourceForge and installed it on openSuse leap 15.0. I usually extract it in the downloads folder and install it from there, using the command #./installer.sh --install But a whim hit me, and I moved the extracted file to /home/myhome/rkhunter and installed it from there. It worked fine, no problems.
Recently I downloaded the rkhunter-1.4.6 tarball from SourceForge and installed it on the same computer. I extracted it in the downloads folder, and as was my usual custom I installed it from there forgetting that I had installed rkhunter-1.4.4 from a different folder. It seemed to install normally, without problems. But now it won't run. Here is what happens: linux-2b8:/home/lx1/Downloads/rkhunter-1.4.6 # ./installer.sh --install Checking system for: Rootkit Hunter installer files: found A web file download command: wget found Starting installation: Checking installation directory "/usr/local": it exists and is writable.

That didn't fix the problem. I also tried downloading the tarball a second time after clearing the computer of all rkhunter files, then extracting, and reinstalling. But I still have the same result. Anyone have an idea why this isn't working now, and how I can fix it?
