Re: [Clamav-users] Freshclam executes the OnUpdateExecute command twice per update

This behaviour disappeared when I upgraded to 0.94.1. But now it is back again, even though I have not yet upgraded to 0.94.2! The first time I got the duplicated messages again, was at: Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2008 16:53:02 +0100 I have no OnOutdatedExecute command - is it possible that it executes the OnUpdateExecute twice when there is no OnOutdatedExecute command and ClamAv is outdated? -- Jesper Dybdal, Denmark. http://www.dybdal.dk (in Danish). ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml

When I install through the ports systems on freebsd, the port
downloads the source, but the signature was made available by the port
maintainer, and is not downloaded from sourceforge.

Some of that may be down to things like FreeBSD, where the package
maintainer fingerprints the download when they prepare the
package/port and it is that fingerprint that is checked when you
install.

[Clamav-users] Why is ClamAV signature file so unpopular?
When I go to the download page for ClamAV at SourceForge,
I observe that the signature file ("clamav-0.*.*.tar.gz.sig")
is downloaded less than 10% of the time that the source code
("clamav-0.*.*.tar.gz") is downloaded. I find this strange,
especially for anti-malware software, whose users presumably
think about security more than the average SourceForge visitor.
