Hello all,


ClamAV documentation states that tar archives are supported.   I've created a small sample tar archive that includes an eicar sample. Clamscan seems to only look at the tar archive as a single file and does not hit on the eicar sample within.   I've tried using the "-a" and "--scan-archive=yes" flags with no improvements.  I would appreciate advice as to if clamscan can actively scan tar archives directly.

WorksForMe(TM):

kdeugau@ele:~/$ tar -c ~kdeugau/dev/eicar >testeicar.tar
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
kdeugau@ele:~/$ clamscan
/home/kdeugau/testeicar.tar: Eicar-Signature FOUND
[...]

kdeugau@ele:~/$ clamscan -V
ClamAV 0.103.3/26393/Mon Dec 20 04:19:51 2021

(Debian package; only Debian testing and unstable have 0.103.4 so far, no sign of 0.104.)
