Package: rkhunter Version: 1.4.2-0.3 Severity: important During "Wheezy" to "Jessie" upgrade (1.4.0-1 --> 1.4.2-0.3) I encountered the following error after when I've chosen to keep currently-installed version of "/etc/rkhunter.conf":
~~~~ Invalid SCRIPTWHITELIST configuration option: Non-existent pathname: /usr/sbin/prelink E: Problem executing scripts DPkg::Post-Invoke 'if [ -x /usr/bin/rkhunter ] && grep -qiE '^APT_AUTOGEN=.?(true|yes)' /etc/default/rkhunter; then /usr/share/rkhunter/scripts/rkhupd.sh; fi' E: Sub-process returned an error code ~~~~ It seems to be due to "SCRIPTWHITELIST=/usr/sbin/prelink" in default "/etc/rkhunter.conf" installed by rkhunter/1.4.0-1. I do not have "prelink" installed on my system and I've never changed this particular configuration option. I removed "rkhunter" (but did not "purge" it), deleted "/etc/rkhunter.conf" and tried to install "rkhunter" again: ~~~~ Selecting previously unselected package rkhunter.
