HRDN-7220 conflicts with HRDN-7230 (rkhunter vs as compiler)

[vk6xebec]

Describe the bug
HRDN-7230 checks if there is a malware scanner. One of the scanners suggested by Lynis is RKhunter. HRDN-7220 checks for the presence of a complier.

However, the as (assembly) complier is listed as a required dependency of rkhunter through binutils. Without this program, rkhunter cannot be operated.

Version

• Distribution [e.g. Ubuntu 24.10]
• Lynis version [e.g. 3.1.2]

Expected behavior
Hard one really
Since this is a conflict causing another test to fail, maybe rkhunter not be suggested as a rootkit checker?
or maybe ignore this check?
