Mark, this has been an issue for many versions along with a slew of others things not working as expected. As much as I liked ClamAV, we've abandoned it as a mail solution shortly after things stopped working correctly and they changed the required build tools so you can no longer build it with GCC 3.3/4.0/4.1/4.2 and have a fully functional app. Yes there are flags to get it to build but certain modules and features don't build and making an incomplete and partially functional binary isn't appealing. Advice on updating build tools is a waste of time as there is no reason to update the build tools just to build ClamAV as it's the only one that has this ridiculous built-tool requirement and only an idiot would tell me to update. My thoughts on this is simple, if it doesn't build with the basic GNU GCC compiler tools then it's seriously flawed and needs these other tools to overcome the short-comings of poorly written/implemented code. When I say build, I mean build with full functionality so don't go off the deep-end stating it builds, partial functionality may be acceptable to you bhut it isn't to me. At this time, for personal use, I use the source code but repackage the build environment to work with what I have and I'm comfortable with submitting corrections and patches, too much focus and complaints on my build tools so why waste my time. -- Dale On Mar 19, 2014, at 11:34 AM, Rafael Ferreira wrote: > Interesting... let me run some tests and get back to you. > > On Mar 19, 2014, at 8:33 AM, Mark Allan <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Just out of interest, did you test to see if it *actually* worked? >> >> My configure output shows that dmg and xar are supported, but it >> doesn't actually detect the Eicar test file within a disk image. >> >> configure: Summary of engine detection features >> autoit_ea06 : yes >> bzip2 : ok >> zlib : /usr >> unrar : yes >> dmg and xar : yes, from /usr >> >> When I create a new disk image, copy the Eicar test file in, and >> scan the dmg, it shows up as being clean. >> >>> clamscan test.dmg >>> test.dmg: OK >>> >>> ----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- >>> Known viruses: 3259558 >>> Engine version: 0.98.1 >>> Scanned directories: 0 >>> Scanned files: 1 >>> Infected files: 0 >>> Data scanned: 10.07 MB >>> Data read: 10.02 MB (ratio 1.01:1) >>> Time: 4.845 sec (0 m 4 s) >> >> Does this work as expected for anyone else? >> >> Mark >> >> On 10 Feb 2014, at 23:38, Rafael Ferreira <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >>> That worked, thanks! >>> >>> On February 10, 2014 at 4:29:41 PM, Steven Morgan >>> ([email protected]) wrote: >>> >>> Rafael, >>> >>> Probably all you need to do install libxml&libxml2-dev, which is >>> used by >>> dmg and xar, then do your configure/make. >>> >>> Steve >>> >>> >>> On Mon, Feb 10, 2014 at 6:05 PM, Rafael Ferreira >>> <[email protected]>wrote: >>> >>>> >>>> Folks, >>>> >>>> I'm compiling clamav 0.98.1 on Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) and I'm not >>>> getting the new super awesome DMG and XAR file support: >>>> >>>> configure: Summary of detected features follows >>>> OS : linux-gnu >>>> pthreads : yes (-lpthread) >>>> configure: Summary of miscellaneous features >>>> check : no (auto) >>>> fanotify : yes >>>> fdpassing : 1 >>>> IPv6 : yes >>>> configure: Summary of optional tools >>>> clamdtop : (auto) >>>> milter : yes (disabled) >>>> configure: Summary of engine performance features) >>>> release mode: yes >>>> jit : yes (auto) >>>> mempool : yes >>>> configure: Summary of engine detection features >>>> autoit_ea06 : yes >>>> bzip2 : ok >>>> zlib : /usr >>>> unrar : yes >>>> dmg and xar : no >>>> >>>> Am I missing a configure flag or third party library? >>>> >>>> Thanks in advance, >>>> >>>> - Rafael >>>> >>>> ---- >>>> scanii.com - the web friendly malware scanner! >>>> _______________________________________________ >>>> http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html >>>> Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net >>> _______________________________________________ >>> http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html >>> Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net >>> _______________________________________________ >>> http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html >>> Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net >> >> _______________________________________________ >> http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html >> Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net > > _______________________________________________ > http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html > Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net > _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net
