The data files were omitted from the source tarball beginning with

Is there any easy/preferred way to "make install" (or "configure")
without having the data files included? I'm packaging clamav-toaster,
and am obtaining the data files in the %post processing, and I don't
want them encumbering the rpm.

I poked around the makefiles a bit, but I'm not very familiar with them.
I'm thinking that a "make install-nodata" or some such would be nice.

Thanks.


Thanks to both David and Bryan for their excellent suggestions.
Unfortunately, I made some bad presumptions (once again - DOH!) which led
me to believe that the data files were the cause of my source RPM
ballooning.

After successfully omitting the database/ from the build, I still ended
up with a 36M srpm file, while the binary rpm was 13M.

Upon closer inspection, it appears that the clamav-devel/win32/
directory is the source of excess.

Is the win32/ directory now a part of the tarball, or is this
unintentional?


I thought you would have heard back by now, so I didn't respond, but in
comparing it with the 0.97.8 tarball I see 0.98 also has a win32/
directory, but it did not contain the win32/clamav-for-windows/ directory
which runs over 70M.

Thanks Al.

I wouldn't expect this to be in the tarball, but maybe so. Can anyone say
whether or not the win32 stuff should be in there? Seems like a waste to me
distributing everything to everybody.

git archive usually pulls in the whole commit when making a tarball, but
you make a good point. I expect we won't go back and re-do the tarballs for
0.98, but we can take a look and make a decision for the next release.

Thanks Dave. Looking forward to a smaller tarball in the future. :)
