As stated multiple times "ClamAV's aggressive policy of disabling older software versions" has got nothing to do with what mirrors do. In fact, as stated multiple times, the clamav project has got no control over the mirrors nor their admins which are left completely free to make use of THEIR bandwith as THEY prefer. Banning old version is THEIR option as is THEIR choice to serve older clients. > If you're running an OS that hasn't packaged 0.96 yet, I think you now > need to build ClamAV from source if you want timely signature updates. > The odd thing is the ClamAV website still recommends using the Debian > Volatile packages. Right. Because, as everybody knows, the clamav guys maintain Debian and have control over volatile... ...and world hunger must be the clamav folks fault as well. Anyway, that being said (for the milionth time), feel free to keep complaining about free services and people behind them as much as you like. This thread is dead for me. --aCaB _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
