Axel:
I just build clamav 0.97.3 for fc15 from spec-file by updating the version number.

Chris:
I do not promise to keep Clamav updated, neither do I expect Axel to. I am normally alerted to a new version when Clamav alerts in the 
logfile - they have not done that this time :-(

What I have done is to download and install the Clamav source-rpm, and atrpms-rpm-config. The I download the source and signature files from 
Clamav.net and put them in rpm/SOURCES. I then update the version number in rpm/SPECS/clamav.spec, and run "rpmbuild -bb clamav.spec". If I 
am lucky I end up with a new rpm-file which I then install. All well I then alert Axel of my findings. At some time Axel then schedules a 
rebuild across all the OS/ARCH combinations, and you can update.

Kim
