Yum and apt-get are currently downloading the ClamAV 0.93 RPM from
RPMforge, however, the RPM does not appear to install everything. Among
other things, clamd and /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamav are never installed from
that RPM. At least that is the case on my CentOS 5 machines and I have
attempted the install several times. I browsed through the
clamav_0.93-2.el5.rf_i386.rpm file and neither clamd nor
/etc/init.d/clamav appear to be included in that RPM. I am fairly
certain that clamd is supposed to be included since it is mentioned
prominently in clamav's 0.93 announcement which I have included below.
Am I missing something? If so, then I send my humble apologies up
front. Otherwise, please advise as to the correct way to install this
rpm so that it includes clamd and /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamav.
FYI,
Gordon Dickens
Dear ClamAV users,
This release introduces many new features and engine enhancements, please
see the notes below for the list of major changes. The most visible one
is the new logic in scan limits which affects some command line and config
options of clamscan and clamd. Please see clamscan(1) and clamd.conf(5)
and the example config file for more information on the new options.
Most important changes include:
* libclamav:
- New logic in scan limits: provides much more efficient protection against
DoS attacks but also results in different command line and config options
to clamscan and clamd (see below)
- New/improved modules: unzip, SIS, cabinet, CHM, SZDD, text normalisator,
entity converter
- Improved filetype detection; filetype definitions can be remotely updated
- Support for .cld containers (which replace .inc directories)
- Improved pattern matcher and signature formats
- More efficient scanning of HTML files
- Many other improvements
* clamd:
- NEW CONFIG FILE OPTIONS: MaxScanSize, MaxFileSize, MaxRecursion, MaxFiles
- ** THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTED **: MailMaxRecursion,
ArchiveMaxFileSize, ArchiveMaxRecursion, ArchiveMaxFiles,
ArchiveMaxCompressionRatio, ArchiveBlockMax
* clamscan:
- NEW CMDLINE OPTIONS: --max-filesize, --max-scansize
- REMOVED OPTIONS: --block-max, --max-space, --max-ratio
* freshclam:
- NEW CONFIG OPTION CompressLocalDatabase
- NEW CMDLINE SWITCH --no-warnings
- main.inc and daily.inc directories are no longer used by ClamAV; please
remove them manually from your database directory
