basic system security checks

Checksecurity does some very basic system security checks, such as
looking for changes in which programs have setuid permissions, and that
remote filesystems are not allowed to have runnable setuid programs.

Note that these are not to be considered in any way complete, and
you should not rely on checksecurity to actually provide any useful
information concerning the security or vulnerability of your system.

The lockfile-progs package is only a "Suggests" because of the poor
way that dselect handles "Recommends", but I do strongly suggest that
you install it; it prevents /etc/cron.daily/standard from running multiple
times if something gets jammed.

Checksecurity was previously part of the cron package.
