Source: chkrootkit Version: 0.58b-3 Severity: important chkrootkit fails its autopkgtest when the containment environment is not running dhclient. The ci.debian.net infrastructure is running dhclient and there the test output looks like this:
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/unstable/amd64/c/chkrootkit/56572135/log.gz | ... | Checking `sniffer'... WARNING | | WARNING: Output from ifpromisc: | lo: not promisc and no packet sniffer sockets | eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/usr/sbin/dhclient[129], /usr/sbin/dhclient[86]) | ... If instead running systemd-networkd, the output looks like this: https://debusine.debian.net/debusine/System/artifact/1204564/raw/1774387/test-chkrootkit-stdout | ... | Checking `sniffer'... not found | ... | **** Test for '^Checking `sniffer'\.\.\. WARNING$' | <No match (FAIL)> | ... | *** Reason(s) for failure follows | Result: FAIL | Missing: ^Checking `sniffer'\.\.\. WARNING$ | Missing: ^WARNING: Output from ifpromisc:$ | Missing: ^lo: not promisc and no packet sniffer sockets$ | *** Unexpected (unmatched) lines follow (for info): | Checking `sniffer'... not found | ... I believe that this is a broken test that should be fixed. Helmut
