You're right, it shouldn't matter, PowerPC

The next question coming will be OS related so I'll answer ahead of time, OS is Mac OS X 10.4.x.

The reason is simple, I must support the OS the customer uses so there is no upgrading the OS, no changing OS and no changing the hardware.

Since it stopped building correctly/completely under GCC 4.x we were left with no choice but to abandon it.

Dale,

Not that it *should* matter, but what is your architecture?

When it builds completely under GCC 4.0, I would be more than happy to offer detailed debugging information and dumps that would be beneficial to the project but as it stands, a bug report at bugzilla.clamav.net isn't anything I would consider wasting my time on but you are more than welcome
to file the report yourself.

It makes no sense for me to file a report as I may use the source files but nothing else, I repackage it so I can build it and rather than listen to stupidity about my method of building being the root of the problem, informing you like other have should be sufficient to warrant an in-depth
investigation into the matter.

You did miss it but it's a two headed nail.

PDF, DMG, XAR and RAR have had issues not recognizing the test viruses

to name just a couple that spring to mind that we've had trouble with
and
this all started happening when the clang and crap entered the picture.

I've worked with the developers in the past, once the build

environment dependancies changed and I was told I had to upgrade my OS
and
build tools is when it was no longer possible to resolve these issues as the update solely for the purpose of building ClamAV is not an option
and I
shouldn't be forced to use someone else's built tool preferences just because they have the luxury of updating on a whim or purely for bragging
rights.

It does not matter if my OS is dated, security patches are applied to

the build tools as they become available and this seems to satisfy all
other software that build from source except ClamAV.

Having everything build with GCC 4.0 would allow me/us to re- deploy

ClamAV and contribute to the code base again (I have in the past) but
the
chances of this are slim to non from what I recall because my OS and
build
tools are dated and listening to rants about ancient and deprecated is
nothing more than someone spewing stupidity.

The fact that I ensure all bugs and updates to the build tools are

fixed/added allows me to keep everything in harmony and there is no
reason
to update anything to build a single software package when all other software sources seem to be content with the existing build environment.

If you wish to go off-list to continue the discussion I have no

objections.

Dale,

Thanks for your email. I'm not sure exactly what you are referring

to.  Maybe I am missing a connection here or something, but the
discussion
was around scanning DMG and XAR, which I think, if there's a issue with, we'd be more than happy to work with anyone to try and square away.

You seem to be discussing a build issue, and you say that it's a

waste of time. When did you get the impression that working with the
developers was a waste of time? If we're not communicating well enough,
we
can fix that. But I think the team is doing a good job of that judging
by
the amount of complaints I have received since we took over the project
from the old ClamAV team.

Please let me know if we need to take this offline and discuss or

anything I can do to help.

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.

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.

When I create a new disk image, copy the Eicar test file in, and scan

the dmg, it shows up as being clean.

test.dmg: OK

Rafael,

Probably all you need to do install libxml&libxml2-dev, which is used

by
dmg and xar, then do your configure/make.
