Hello,
I had this problem after and upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2. So I thought I
had better wipe the disk and install from scratch. I dd /dev/null to the
whole distk and created new partitions just to be sure. I have the exact
same problem right after installation. I have it with many commands the
two that bother me the most are rkhunter and I think clamav when amavisd
is running. I have been unable to figure out why I keep seeing this
message. For example with rkhunger I get
SCRIPT: suse.de-rkhunter exited with RETURNCDE = 1.
SCRIPT: output (stdout && stderr) follows

I also get this error if I enable amavisd with YaST2. It appears to come
from clamav.

I'm not sure this is a security related problem but anyway, do you have
"/etc/magic"? It belongs to the "filerpm" package.

Yes
-rw-r 1 root root 113 2006-11-25 05:18 /etc/magic

The reason I ask is this shows up using security software.

hrmmseems the file package is b0rked, reinstall it.

Which package? I went into yast2 installation and selected update on all
installed files waited 2 hours for all packages to be installed again and
still same problem. I really do not know how to fix this. Google was no
help. This probem exits on 2 systems. Both upgraded and then installed
from scratch. Upgrade 1 10.1 to 10.2, 1 10.0 to 10.2. also wiped HD and
installed from scratch. I really do not know what is causing this. I can
install 10.1 on either of these systems and works not error, but 10.2 has
this error. I really am at a loss of what else to do to fix this problem.
Something must not be working. I also tried a network install. Same
problem. Retail DVD, Download DVD, Network install all the same problem.
Memory test for 48 hours no problem. What else can I try?
