Run this:

  /usr/lib64/chkrootkit-0.49/chkdirs /tmp /usr/share /usr/bin /usr/sbin /lib

It if isn't silent, it believes something is wrong with the link count of
the directories and it concludes that there could be hidden directories.
This may be because you're using "btrfs" instead of ext4. Could be a bug
in chkrootkit's chkdirs tool or a concept that's inappropriate. Dunno.
Somebody might want to investigate it.

It's the result of running

  /usr/lib64/chkrootkit-0.49/chkwtmp

and it may be necessary to examine whether the chkwtmp tool still does
what it's supposed to do (check for deletions). Perhaps it's just broken
on x86_64. Both chkutmp and chkwtmp have suffered from several bugs in
the past, their C code isn't pretty, and not all bug-fixes have been
applied in upstream chkrootkit yet either.
