I'm using it in several production environments. Will this RPM override dependencies in the stock SL distribution? EL (and Linux in general) does not seem to have reliable polymorphism -- the default for these sorts of dependencies generally does not seem to install a different executable/library sub-tree independent of the stock distribution except in so far as the same files (e.g., libraries) are used. There should be no issues with running the EPEL version at least. No dependency issues from what I've seen. However, ClamAV still appears to be pre-production (0.x, not 1.x). Is it stable and useful? Don't look yourself blind on version numbers - especially on Open Source project. Having a release being 0.x-something doesn't mean it's not stable or usable. You need to check what the each project defines as their stable release. http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/ And FWIW, Zimbra ships with these ClamAV 0.x versions as well as part of the integrated anti-virus mail checks. What is even more important with anti-virus, is updated virus databases. Which gets updates almost every day, and freshclam in ClamAV takes care of that job. -- kind regards, David Sommerseth

Have you noticed that you have to do occasional in place reinstalls of XP to correct a severe case of the slows? I have two XP VM (and others). I just got through having to in place both of them (again). If you have had the same problem, do yo come up with a way to prevent it recurring? Many thanks, -T Hi I've noticed this behaviour and on Win 7 too. A reboot seems to make it slightly better, but up to now I have assumed it's a Windows issue. Hi Bill, W7 and W8 even more so are such bad quality that it is hard to tell at times if it is the VM or the OS. I have had to rebuild my W7 once already too. XP, although not the sharpest tack in the box, is not so flaky. I do all my Windows work that won't run in Wine in XP. Anyway, I have been looking for a pattern. At first I thought it was a virt or kvm update. But, the last time there weren't any. I did forget to shutdown both XP's before shutting down Linux, causing them to save themselves. But, I forget all the time and nothing bad happens. This was just the first time I ha forgotten two at once. So, the plot thickens. And, it is probably a Windows problem. I work on native Windows machines for a living and oh mama do they have boot up and slow problems. It us especially annoying when W7 rolls back due to a minor crash and decided to repair itself. That is repair itself for ever. -T
