Hi, can anyone help?

Your choices are:

1) Wait for EPEL to update their ClamAV package

2) Install directly from source

3) Rebuild the package with the update yourself.

I use RPMForge myself, and they haven't updated to .5 either. I'm not
aware of any earthshaking bugs in .4, so I'm content to let it sit
until
an updated package comes out.

I tried to upgrade from clamav 0.97.4 to 0.97.5 from source and I still
see that it 0.97.4 for some strange reason. I tried to remove the clamav
0.97.4 by using make uninstall in the clamav-0.97.4 directory then did a
make install in clamav-0.97.5 and it still shows clamav 0.97.4.

Here are the results from freshclam -v:

Clam AntiVirus Scanner 0.97.4

I'm running RHEL 5.1 with the current kernel update and here is the
uname -a:

Linux s1.molsci.org 2.6.18-308.8.2.el5xen #1 SMP Tue May 29 12:36:24 EDT
2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I never had a problem compile and installing or updating clamav to the
new version.
I had no problems compile and upgrading from source to older Linux and
Apple Mac OS X systems.
Also I noticed wiki.clamav.net is down or I can't connect to it so I can
read any upgrade instructions.

Any ideas why clamav 0.97.5 doesn't upgrade on RHEL 5.1?

For a couple of days after 0.97.5 was known to exist, it was not actually
posted to the web page. Even after the hyperlink title was changed, the
older version was still what downloaded. Double check to make certain
what
you downloaded was "clamav-0.97.5.tar.gz".


-Al-
I've double checked that it is clamav-0.97.5.tar.gz with the new VRT
signature and not the Tomaz signature. I also checked it I was compiling
from the clamav-0.97.5 directory and check it was compiling correctly.
I've been using clamav since 2004 so I've been doing the same thing for
awhile several systems including this RHEL 5.1 that I have been running
since 2008 and updated by Red Hat weekly. Again I used the same
clamav-0.97.5.tar.gz file for my MacBookPro and other older Linux
systems no problem. This first time I ever seen this on RHEL 5.1.

I can't say for sure what the story is with RHEL5.1. I do know though that 0.97.5 has no (or empty) database files, which broke the rpmbuild for the clamav-toaster build (which I maintain). I'm waiting for the developers to sort that out. Apparently they're using a new build process, and might be considering packaging the database separately (which makes a lot of sense if you ask me).
