Sometimes Michael (the rkhunter author) is good and quick at these, and
responds well, other times he never responds and ignores you.

I've been trying to get him to support Scientific Linux for over a year now,
sent him all the reports and outputs he needs to add support for the
distribution (he supports RHEL and CentOS, but for some reason not SL), I've
had him go halfway with the support (our emails get to the halfway point of
"ready to include in rkhunter"), then nada, no more responses.

I've also reported a bug with one of his mirrors (mirror13) which is broken
and holds rkhunter updates from 2005 (and fails my nightly checks for updates
as a result), he's acknowledged the problem and told me he's re-doing alot of
the way mirrors work etc, but the problem is still there and has been there
for 5 months.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not bagging the guy, but just saying you're not alone
and it's something I've learnt to accept from him.

Regards,

Michael.
