Yes, I know this is an OpenBSD list not the ClamAV list... Anyhow, I'm working on an updated archivers/unarj port for use with clamav so you can scan inside ARJ archives. Though the current port shows unarj has an "x" switch to extract files from ARJ archives with path names, said switch doesn't work, and never has worked since the code to create directories is just plain missing.
You can use the "e" switch to extract files from ARJ archives but not path is created, hence, files with identical names will be skipped rather overwritten. So my question for the clamav users is how the heck does clamav work with compressed archives? -Does it extract archives with full paths to a temporary directory and then scan inside the temp directory? -Or does it extract individual files from the archive to a temp directory, and then scan the individual files? And lastly yes, I've got the updated "unarj" port (v.2.65) working and have fixed all of string handling so it's safe(r) to use with clamav but the new code still has the same license limitations as the existing unarj port. As for the sourcefore "arj" port which is GPL'd, I also have it working but the code is such a mess I may not be able to fix all of it's problems. Thanks, JCR
