Dont know about building from the srpms, but using the rpms worked just fine
to upgrade my 0.65 to 0.66.

Were there any dependency issues to be solved?  The .spec file looks like it
requires the fedora user and group management packages to be installed.

Hello Richard,

it is not so simply, IMHO.

Clamav development is very quick and syncing with sources is not easy,
especially when there is not release plan or release cycle defined .
On another side, the package maintainers (rpm, deb, solaris, bsd) 
provides valuable QA.
Sometimes clamav versions didnt compile on some systems (aka milter.8),
additional post-release patches was needed to correct run.
You get tested packages with additional features like starting scripts, 
logwatch
config and more for the same price :-)

There are usualy stable packages and development packages following
each important cvs changes with a little delay and you are free to test it.
Petr

There's also one in the "Binary packages" page, if you follow the link
to Fedora packages. It has binaries, an SRPM and the .spec file for
0.66:

(I've installed these binary packages on our RH 8.0 server without

One can be found on the Fedora.us web site under
http://www.fedora.us/tempspecs/ as well as .spec files for a few other
things.

I would like to second that request.  Does anyone on the list have a .spec
file that they would like to contribute?
