Bug#1031896: [Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#1031896: Bug#1031896: libclamav11: LibClamAV Error: Can't verify database integrity, breaks amavis

True.

I'm not a C programmer, so I may be unduly concerned about the maintenance 
load.  I'll defer to your judgement.

I do wonder if we should make a stab at switching the rust bits to using Debian 
packages instead of the embedded copies.  If we could manage it, then any 
security issues in the rust libraries can be fixed in clamav with a binNMU, no 
upload needed.

Now we maintain the tfm bits.

No reply so far. The first few patches from early January got the response "it 
was a chaotic week, we get to it soon" and the tfm patch got no response since 
I posted it last week.
Maybe you need to walk around their office and throw a stone with pull request 
number written on it :-)

Generally favorably, but I'd rather wait for upstream to agree on it, otherwise 
it may be a patch we have to maintain forever.  What's their reaction to the 
change?

It's also late in the release cycle to do it (not definitely a problem, but 
calls for caution).
