I've been trying to upgrade ClamAV to 0.96 on my PowerPC Macintosh after
running 0.95.x versions with no problems for a year or two. The Macintosh
is running OS X 10.5.8 - note that this is a Client version of OS X which
does not have an Apple-provided version of ClamAV (I believe OS X Server
comes with a version of ClamAV).
I appear to get a good build but when I try to start clamd, get the
following error:
sh-3.2# /usr/local/sbin/clamd
Assertion failed: (ResultPtr >= -(1 << 23) && ResultPtr < (1 << 23) &&
"Relocation out of range!"), function relocate,
file llvm/lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCJITInfo.cpp, line 399.
Abort trap
I've been building it as follows:
In my personal account, untarred the sources, then:
./configure CC=/usr/local/llvm-gcc4.2-2.4-ppc-darwin9/bin/llvm-gcc
(I installed that compiler when I first installed ClamAV 0.95.x as the
Apple-provided compiler was flagged by configure for the PR28045 bug).
Based on the Upgrade Notes on the website, I also tried the following but
am not sure if that's what the note meant to do:
./configure CC=/usr/local/llvm-gcc4.2-2.4-ppc-darwin9/bin/llvm-gcc
CXX=/usr/local/llvm-gcc4.2-2.4-ppc-darwin9/bin/llvm-gcc
then:
make
Once make finished, su to root, killed the exisiting 0.95.3 clamd, cd to
0.95.3 directory and did 'make uninstall', back to the 0.96 directory, and
did 'make install'. Ran freshclam and attempted to start clamd but
received the error message above.
I'm back on 0.95.3 (but noticed that 0.96 freshclam gets an additional
file related to bytecode and 0.95.3 does not like that file
being present).
Any ideas?
