RKhunter - Invalid option specified: --update

[Perdignus]

I'm using "Rootkit Hunter 1.4.6" and have noticed my cronjobs no longer accept the "--update" switch. I also tried running "rkhunter --update" in a terminal as root but it also complains that "--update" is an invalid option.

rkhunter -V
Rootkit Hunter 1.4.6

rkhunter --update
Invalid option specified: --update

I checked with the authors of RKhunter and they say nothing has changed in their code for the "--update" switch and it still works for them. I do recall it working previously but as of late it hasn't worked and I just get the message "Invalid option specified: --update".

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
