Bug#243938: ITP: rkhunter

2005-08-08 Thread Matt Taggart
The ITP for rkhunter has been quiet since Feb 15.

Frederik,
I understand your concern about waiting for upstream to integrate patches you 
sent so that the initial version of the package gets to start out with a more 
reasonable debian diff. Has upstream taken them yet? I don't think we should 
wait forever and if they haven't been accepted then I think you should proceed.

I and others are waiting for this package and it would be good if something 
was available in the next few weeks.

The package available in,

  http://people.debian.org/~ema/packages/

is dated Jan 06. Is this the most recent attempt at packaging available?

Thanks,

Not to my knowledge. At least I haven't heard anything from upstream yet 
regarding a merge of my patches.

I guess you're right. I'm under an expreme work load at work these 
months, though, so my time is limited.

I'll see what I can do. Hopefully, I'll manage to find some time in the 
upcoming weekends...

I suspect it is.

Could you send to this bug report the changes requested of upstream, so that
we can help with this process, or at least have these documented here.

Perhaps someone else can take the packaging to get it going, and when you
are under less pressure and have more time can co-maintain or take it over?

Do not apply more stress than necessary. Myself, or one of the others here
would be happy to get the package into shape and get it uploaded to get
things started, then when you have more time you can begin to do either
co-maintainence, or take over the package.

This is Emanuele's last attempt, we haven't heard anything from him here, so
we can assume it is the latest. However, I imagine it needs to be updated to
a newer version, and perhaps integrate your changes that you sent to upstream.

It is.

Right. I'm currently a bit busy with Debian (and real life) work, so I
don't think I'll have the time to maintain rkhunter with the due care.
I think that Micah is surely a better sponsor than me for
security related packages; however, if my help is needed, I'm here.

ciao,

Yes, I think this would be best for everybody.

I'd be happy to help co-maintain if needed (if the new maintainer 
(assuming somebody takes over this ITP) wants this).

- Look for hidden files
- Optional scan within plaintext and binary files

  Some of the detected rootkits/backdoors/LKM's/worms:
55808 Trojan - Variant A, AjaKit, aPa Kit, Apache Worm,
Ambient (ark) Rootkit, BeastKit, BOBKit,
CiNIK Worm (Slapper.B variant), Danny-Boy's Abuse Kit,
Devil RootKit, Dica, Dreams Rootkit, Duarawkz Rootkit,

  Please note that rkhunter does *not* guarantee, that your system has
  not been cracked! You should also run additional tests, e.g. using
  chkrootkit and other measures.


Uwe.
