Hi there,

We have ClamAV 0.104.1 compiled from sources and working  fine

in IBM i PASE environment - which is quite same architecture like IBM AIX 
binaries.

We have a problem to compile ClamAV 0.105.0 because at present

we have not rust on IBM i PASE  - nor on AIX.

Is there a way to compile ClamAV 0.105.0 without rust ?

The following is taken from the announcement on 14th March 2022 of the
fist release candidate of ClamAV 0.105.0:

| ClamAV 0.105.0 includes the following improvements and changes.
| | New Requirements | | * Starting with ClamAV v0.105, the Rust toolchain is required to compile ClamAV.

| You can install the Rust toolchain for your development environment by
| following the instructions on the rustup<https://draft.blogger.com/#>
| website. Some binary package distributions do provide relatively

| | rustup update | | Building ClamAV requires, at a minimum, Rust compiler version 1.56,
| as it relies on features introduced in the Rust 2021 Edition.
| | ClamAV's third-party Rust library dependencies are vendored into the

| clamav.net/downloads<https://draft.blogger.com/#>. But, if you build

| GitHub.com, you will need the internet to download the Rust

As you can see, the requirement is not just for Rust, but for at least
a minimum version of Rust.
