As recently demonstrated, dealing with such situations one-by-one isn't really a problem: You (or anyone else) could use the patch I posted to compile a systemd-free clamav package for Jessie and share the results for distribution. In case it doesn't address the issue completely enough from a practical point, I could very likely help with getting it to this point (within some reasonable time limits, obviously). _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
