Hi, I use ClamAV on both Debian and openSuSE, and compile it myself, rather than waiting for the distro to release the latest version.
My recent compilations incorporate "libclamunrar.so.6.1.26" to handle RAR files. I hope that covers it, as I compile ClamAV for "/opt/clamav" and don't have any unrar-related '.so' files in any of the usual 'lib' directories. Paul Kosinski P.S. Actually, I compile ClamAV for "/opt/clamav.d/clamav.x.y.z" using the "--prefix" option on 'configure', copy over the latest CVD files, and then make "/opt/clamav" be a symbolic link to the one I want to use. This allows easy switching to another version in case something goes wrong. (I use this trick for most of the packages I compile locally.)
