Re: [Clamav-users] Cannot compile clamav 0.94 on i386 openbsd 4.0

2008-09-17 Thread S.Madge
Is it an idea to try to enable the alternate implementation str.c instead of 
strcasestr? Or are there negative consequences in doing that?

Stan

Works fine:

# gcc -o foo foo.c  ./foo
StrCASeSTR

You can edit clamav-config.h, and change the #define HAVE_STRCASESTR to
#undef HAVE_STRCASESTR.

It seems this a ARF video file (unknown to me before this).

I found somewhere that windows and macosx players can be downloaded
from this URL : 

http://www.intercall.com/services/web-conferencing/meeting-center-resources_recplay.php

The windows player here is ok to read the file.

Best regards.

Hi.

Nope.
The strcasestr implementation in libc is usually faster, but I don't
think that is the case for openbsd 4.0.

Still, I don't know why this happened, because configure detected that
you have strcasestr, and compiling a testprogram
showed that you have it. It is strange that the linker couldn't find it.

Only down side is you will have to do it every time you rebuild samba;
until you or someone else finds out why it isn't working.

 You are not doing anything wrong.  Get a newer version of bzip2.
 

 I believe the situation is this:

 Apparently Redhat believes it is not a security bug:

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=438118#c6

 The crashing of bzip2 itself is not a security bug.  But clamav
 (which is NOT included in the package list by RedHat) uses bzip2
 to unpack an archive and assert no harmful content is inside.
 Clamav cannot verify such an archive in this case.  This could be
 used by a virusmaker to bypass the virusscanner on the mailserver.

 There exist updated bzip2 packages for FC7 and FC8.

 When some Real Paying Customer for Redhat Enterprise logs a bug, and
 convinces them it *is* a security bug, then the machinery for
 backporting the fix will be started, I guess, resulting in a fixed
 bzip2 for the RHEL series (or is this wishful thinking?).


   
 Rhetorical question: Why does it have to be a _security_ bug in order 
 for redhat to fix it?
 

I wanted to ask for those of you using CentOS and ClamAv-0.94 if you've 
had any issues with bunzip2 process crashing or experiencing any issues 
with ClamAV on these systems running the earlier version of bunzip2?
