I just did some more testing with "run-parts /etc/cron.daily" from a shell this morning I see warnings. Testing manually, scan, propupd etc are fine.
With rkhunter-1.4.6-28.fc42.noarch I no longer get emails with warnings, but if I run /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter manually, I still get in the console: grep: warning: stray \ before / grep: warning: stray \ before / ...
Yeah, there's another one in there. ;( Will look around for it... sorry for missing it.

This appears to be fixed. I'm no longer getting the grep warnings with this latest update.
