They removed the functionality in 0.80 and above, but that's because it's simplest for users to create md5 signatures of unknown binaries (and the automatic signature generation depended on having another virus scanner detect it already anyway). Of course, you can also create signatures by hand, which isn't that difficult once you've read the .pdf file for the format.
What do you mean by "they removed the functionality" ?
sigtool - the command line utility used to create & manipulate signatures - is still there in 0.83.
I meant they removed the functionality for sigtool to automatically generate signatures. Note the following in the release notes from 0.80:
* sigtool: Add new option --md5
* sigtool: Remove ability of automatic signature generation - inexperienced
users should now use MD5 hashes (*.hdb databases) to create
their own signaturesAs already said, you cannot build CVD files by yourself but you can create a signature and then create your own database with sigtool and use these files.
The database files are just plaintext. No need to use sigtool to generate them.
