rkhunter-1.3.8-1.3.mga1.src.rpm

rkhunter is a tool to detect rootkits installed on your system and suspicious
file changes. In order for rkhunter to run these checks, it maintains a catalog
of files and their properties installed on your system so it can compare
current files and statusses against the ones recorded in its database.

Out of the box rkhunter is configured to give as few false positives as
possible on a Mageia system. Still, despite this, you might want to change some
of its configuration options yourself to best suit you. The file used for this
is /etc/rkhunter.conf

Upon an initial install, rkhunter will create the databases it needs itself. On
upgrades and during regular use, you may want to update its databases yourself
by executing: 
	rkhunter --propupd 
before running any other rkhunter checks yourself.
