Actually no, I mean I don't install a version that isn't presented by the
team as "stable release".

Latest ClamAV stable release is: 0.94
I think clamAV is arguably one of the best open-source applications
available. I agree it has a ways to go to be fully competitive with many
commercial A/V solutions (speed is a big one) but I have also noted that
Clam has, in several areas, beat the commercial applications to the punch on
some features (catching phishing e-mails comes to mind). On the bad/good
tally sheet clamav still overwhelmingly comes up winning on the good side.
But I admit it bothers me that something as simple as an old config option
would prevent the daemon from coming up without so much as a line in the
log.
