When I ran chkrootkit
I cannot find evidence of this tool being maintained.
But I did find people saying its reports contain false positives.

Thank-you, Barry. I "patch" weekly. dnf says this tool was last patched on my workstation on Dec. 12, 2023.
dnf says I have version 0,47, It's in the @System repository, from fedora repo.
The tool's webpage says there is a 0.58b, released on July 05, 2023. So our repository does seem behind, and it does seem the tool is being maintained slowly if still at all.
This morning on the web, I did see that chkrootkit is prone to false positives. I've seen that with the tool's check of "lkm".
