Thanks to all and you, Dennis in particular. Here are the results in Fedora Core kernel 2.6.12-1.1376_FC3 : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# which clamscan /usr/local/bin/clamscan [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cd /usr/local/bin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# clamscan -V ClamAV 0.87.1/1211/Fri Dec 16 17:51:35 2005 So as far as which (and everything else I can find) is concerned I have the correct latest version. > Also check the lib directories to > see if you have earlier version(s) of the clamav libraries. Oooh. Very good, thanks. Here's my result: [EMAIL PROTECTED] lib]# cd /usr/local/lib [EMAIL PROTECTED] lib]# ls libclam* -l -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 903056 Dec 12 17:57 libclamav.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 771 Dec 12 17:57 libclamav.la lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Dec 12 17:57 libclamav.so -> libclamav.so.1.0.16 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Dec 12 17:57 libclamav.so.1 -> libclamav.so.1.0.16 ************************************************** ==> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 544290 May 7 2005 libclamav.so.1.0.10 ************************************************** -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 712604 Dec 12 17:57 libclamav.so.1.0.16 So there is an old version of libclamav.so, although the symbolic link points to the newer version; I'll move/rename the 1.0.10 version and see if that fixes it. [EMAIL PROTECTED] lib]# locate libclam* returns a raft of replies, mostly 0.87.1, but also /usr/lib/libclamav.so.1 which is a symbolic link pointing to /usr/lib/libclamav.so.1.0.12 So apparently the library locations changed from /usr/lib to /usr/local/lib? I've moved these to the Desktop, let's see what happens. > I build my own binaries Didn't used to, but as I get geekier and geekier I am doing so more and more. Finding yum for rpms made my day. :-) Thanks for the substantive reply. Kind regards, Andy _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
