This is the error:
configure: error: Installed zlib version contains a security bug. Please install version 1.2.2 or later.
** Error ! configure failed
But as we saw last time with Thomas it is not true, as stated in the zlib home page and in the bug description page:
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/238678 and http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/JGEI-64EQPH
The configure now check only if the version is "1.2.1" but not checks against a a list of "vendors" that has fixed the iussue without bumping the revision. I think it is a configure iussue, so it should be fixed by clamav devels in configure itself, because it is not acceptable to think to edit manually the zlib.h to 1.2.2 in every FreeBSD 5.3 systems.
If none of developers would care about make such patch we (generally speaking for FreeBSD people) can provide a configure patch if then it will be committed :-)
Thanks for attention.
P.s.
Is there in the clamav team someone that develops on FreeBSD as main platform, so we can address to him the iussues ? :-)
Thanks again.
