It looks like you're running 0.98. The current version of ClamAV is 0.98.1.
The update might not have hit your package repo yet. Check with whoever
maintains that package for the repo you're using.
Thanks,
Yes, but that does not match the rpm numbers .... hence the confusion.
If you are correct the person who uploaded the latest rpm to rpmforge made a mistake or
"whatever" ....
Jobst
The RPM version number is not the same, or not guaranteed, to be the
same version number as the software. There are times when there will be
an error in a package (a startup script mistake or path error, or...)
that breaks only the package and requires repackaging. Yours looks like
it was the second package released for ClamAV version 0.98.
Here is the installed version I created from source:
Note here that I use "clam*" and not "clamav" as you have. Otherwise I
would miss clamd.
#> yum list installed "clam*"
clamav.x86_64 0.98.1-1.el6 installed
clamav-db.x86_64 0.98.1-1.el6 installed
clamav-devel.x86_64 0.98.1-1.el6 installed
clamav-unofficial-sigs.noarch 3.7.1-6.el6 installed
clamd.x86_64 0.98.1-1.el6 installed
Software version: 0.98.1
Package version: 0.98.1-1.el6
For the previous version of ClamAV it looked like this:
Software version: 0.98
Package version: 0.98-2.el6 <-- Version 2 of the package as I found an
error in the "UserName" in the script. I use smmsp where the default
user is often clamav or just clam, depending on the distro. That
requires I rebuild the package.
