This is a request rather than a bug. The executable files in /tmp/user/0/timeshift are being seen by chkrootkit as a possible rootkit infection. Can they be stored outside of /tmp someplace instead please?

teejee2008 commented 5 years ago

/tmp is used for temporary files. Where do you suggest the files should be placed?

adjenk commented 5 years ago

Yes but these are not temporary files. What about something like /usr/bin/timeshift
