Hi Folks,
Well, after quite some time, the script will now gracefully handle
incompatibility issues with the "gpg" and "find" commands that have
plagued some users. Several testers that were experiencing problems
with previous versions have reported that the issues have been resolved
with this update of the script.
Here's what has changed with this update (from the CHANGELOG):
Version 2.7.3 (updated 2009-04-25)
- Added error checking to GPG signature tests and will now fall-back
and retest using different parameters if an error is detected.
- Added error checking to "find" command and will now fall-back and
try several alternatives (from most favorable to least favorable)
until the command is run successfully.
- Removed the rsync "-r" (recurse into directories) flag since we
don't need it, as the script only syncs with those files that
have been specifically defined if the '--files-from' file.
- Changed the script's '-d' flag to '-i', to "Output system and
configuration information".
- The script's '-d' flag will now 'decode' ClamAV 'UNOFFICIAL'
3rd-Party signatures for viewing. The script will NOT decode
image signatures (for obvious reasons), nor ClamAV 'OFFICIAL'
signatures, due to the various signature formats.
* There are no config file changes.
* As a final reminder, please note the tarball, script, and config
file name changes from:
unofficial-clamav-sigs.*
To:
clamav-unofficial-sigs.*
See the CHANGELOG for information on why the name was changed.
The updated tarball can be downloaded from:

As usual, let me know if there are any issues, suggestions, or feature
requests.
Bill
