Sometimes FreeBSD patch 3rd part products when import it to src, but i can't confirm for this case, since it was imported a long time ago. I could make clamav port depend of zlib installed by ports when FreeBSD is < 6.3, but i cannot commit this kind of changes to ports tree because FreeBSD 6.2 is no longer supported since May 31 2008, almost 2 years now. Users are warned to upgrade to 6.4 at least, it will be supported until November 2010. -- Renato Botelho _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net
