Package: rkhunter
Version: 1.3.8-7
Severity: normal

The source package file was recently updated from 5.04-5 to 5.08-1

file 5.04-5 reports:
/usr/bin/rkhunter: POSIX shell script text executable                            

file 5.08-1 reports:
/usr/bin/rkhunter: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable                     

After the upgrade rkhunter reports:
Warning: The command '/usr/bin/rkhunter' has been replaced and is not a script: /usr/bin/rkhunter: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable

Thanks
Peter Karbaliotis
