I will try to describe how I manage to get the final version (0.93-0.2) of ClamAV running AT LAST today, after living a whole nightmare, to finally get it up and running.
Well at least until the official package has been released, for OS 10.3. Ok, here I go... 1) The first step is to uninstall any previous version you have installed. Apparently YaST2 (if you installed ClamAV v0.92 from there) leaves traces behind, so this will not be enough. There are some serious library issues around yet with the new version, if you dont believe me, just check the [url=http://www.nabble.com/clamav-users-f16463.html]ClamAV Forums[/url] to check how many people using different distros, are complaining about the lots of problem they are having to making to work ClamAV v0.93-0.2, even when there is is available a RPM for their specific distro. 2) I had to install from SOURCE the earlier version (0.92.1) to uninstall it latter. And only by doing this I really erased all the traces behind, to prepare the system to a fresh installation. So just make the traditional install process when installing from sources. Once the source package has been uncompressed: ./configure make make install Then proceed to uninstall it ./configure make make uninstall Ok now grab the RPM released for openSUSE 10.3 (maintained by Reinhard Max) from here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/clamav/clamav-0.93/10.3-i386 i386 or ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/clamav/clamav-0.93/10.3-x86_64 x64 ... depending on your architecture. 3) Now you can finally proceed to install the RPM package, as usual rpm -ivlh <package-name> 4) Reboot your machine (this was really important, I read somewhere that it was recommended to restart the services, but since I didn't know what services, how to restar them, I prefered to reboot the PC) 5) Now try to update the virus database by running: freshclam Ok, now you are done, even when you possibly will receive a warning like this, at the end of the process: Hope this little guide helps some guys, to have their AVs updated. PD: If someone knows how to solve the WARNING issue shown in step 5), please let me know, how to bypass/solve this problem. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-install-latest-Clamav-%28v0.93-0.2%29-on-openSUSE-10.3-tp16888968p16888968.html Sent from the clamav-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
