Welcome. You're starting on quite a journey.
./configure --enable-check
checking for g++... g++
checking whether the C++ compiler works... yes
...
checking check.h usability... no
checking check.h presence... no
checking for check.h... no
configure: unable to compile/link with check
configure: error:
ERROR! Check was configured, but not found. Get it from
http://check.sf.net/
The error message tells you what to do if you want to use the 'check'
utility but you don't have it. That is, it tells you to install it!
But it isn't necessary, you can do without it. You don't need to give
configure the '--enable-check' argument. In any case it will look for
it and will use it if it finds it. Just run
./configure
and see what happens. There might still be things you need to install
to get ClamAV to build successfully. Next time around, please let us
know your Linux distribution (e.g. Debian, Suse, Ubuntu) and version,
as they have repositories which provide some of the required goodies.
Installing packages is easier than building things yourself, if the
repository's versions of the packages supports the build.
