Description Chris Slycord 2007-10-05 17:24:54 UTC
http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/
Announced that 1.3.0 was released

Copying and renaming the 1.2.9 ebuild from portage doesn't work, though.

Reproducible: Always

Diff between 1.2.9 ebuild and a working 1.3.0 ebuild

Using this it installs on my x86 box but I had to comment out the couple epatch lines from the original since they failed to patch.

Comment 3 Sandro Bonazzola 2008-04-22 21:21:26 UTC
It seems there is a (temporary?) shortage of developers in forensics herd: both strerror (MIA by feb 23rd) and dragonheart (should return on apr 26th) are actually away. I'm sure that they will take a look at this as soon as they can.

This is an ebuild for 1.3.2 release.
Please check. It is tested on my amd64 machine.

bash completion for 1.3.2

The options changed a lot since the 1.3 release,
so a new bash completion must be made.

ppc64 patch

I don't know if this patch is needed anymore...
Comment 8 Matt 2008-05-04 12:27:08 UTC
Hi King Chi, 

(I hope that's your first name ;) )

thanks for those ebuilds, 

unfortunately it says:

rkhunter --update
Invalid INSTALLDIR configuration option - no installation directory specified.

when trying to update it via 

rkhunter --update

does an installation directory needs to be specified during that update or during install ?

any ideas ?

I'll have a look at it later, 

thanks :)

Are you using the diff by Chris? It has that problem.
That's why I'm making my own.
The INSTALLDIR option lies in rkunter.conf, which is new in 1.3.2.
Have you etc-update'd ?

I'm a Chinese. The first name is "Wong" ;)

對不起 (hope that's the right thing for sorry) ;)

so this time I'm doing it right:

Hi Wong,

>Are you using the diff by Chris? It has that problem.
>That's why I'm making my own.
>The INSTALLDIR option lies in rkunter.conf, which is new in 1.3.2.
>Have you etc-update'd ?

seemingly yes, I mistakenly emerged the version from the ycarus-overlay,
corrected it and now it's working flawlessly for me :)

thanks a lot - you did a great job !

Regards

Mat

P.S.: what does the forensics herd say about this ? is it ok for inclusion in the portage-tree ?
Comment 11 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2008-07-20 00:57:20 UTC
rkhunter-1.3.2 should be in portage (maybe for testing first).
rkhunter-1.3.2 works fine here since a few months (amd64).
Comment 12 William Hubbs gentoo-dev 2008-08-02 19:39:05 UTC
All,

what is the latest on this?  I would also like to see it in portage. :-)

Thanks,

William

Please make sure you do not introduce security bug 235798 which is present on rkhunter 1.3 and later to the tree. Before bumping, either check the code/changelog or consult with the Security Team.

bug #253720 has ebuilds for 1.3.4
Comment 17 Jesse Adelman 2009-01-06 01:17:59 UTC
Hrm. rkhunter 1.3.4 is in ~x86, but I get the same problem as in bug comment #8. Yep, I did etc-update, but INSTALLDIR isn't in /etc/rkhunter.conf. Thanks.

this version should work, seems that the author has changed the DBDIR value or so..
i've also renamed the tmpdir patch to rkhunter-create-tmpdir.patch and ppc patch to rkhunter-ppc64.patch.
Comment 19 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2009-01-06 11:03:26 UTC
hm, maybe we should talk a bit about the directories..
i think /usr/lib/ isn't the right place for DBDIR or TMPDIR.
i'd suggest at least /var/lib, what do you think?
Comment 20 Dan Coats 2009-01-06 15:34:23 UTC
I get the same, what exactly is the solution?

Invalid INSTALLDIR configuration option - no installation directory specified.
Comment 21 Tim Ryan 2009-01-06 18:59:11 UTC
I have the same error on an amd64 system. Installed today in ~amd64.

Same problem on amd64. What's up? What do we need to do?

here as well, i've double-checked dispatch-conf... and nothing. there's no man page. What should be changed ? where ?
interestingly a google search lead to this page.

Comment 25 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2009-01-15 15:42:48 UTC
i close this bug because 1.3.4 is now in the tree and there is allready an open bug for problems with this version, bug 254100.
