Well, this happens... one thing that would be nice is if folks gave

rkhunter maintainers (of which I am one) a heads up so we could add it

Apologies. I assumed (incorrectly it turns out) that rkhunter folks were
aware of this. Google shows thousands of results for:
rkhunter "hidden directory found" "etc/java" [1]
Some of them include other distributions noting [2] and whitelisting
/etc/.java/ [3] specifically.
Otherwise we are just reacting when users see it.
In any case, will try and get this updated soon...
Thanks, much appreciated!
Cheers,
