Starting with v0.103 will be really helpful. I've already voiced my
concerns about CMake... As the Gentoo maintainer, the switch is a bit
annoying, since we've been fixing autotools issues for years with many
of our patches forgotten upstream. With CMake, our users are going to
have to re-experience and re-report those bugs, and then we're going
to have to re-fix and re-submit them all (and someone is going to have
to re-write my open OpenRC pull request for CMake -- no easy task).

But in the end, everything will be OK. I plan to step down as
maintainer and let someone else deal with it =) In the meantime,
having security support for a version that supports our init system
will be nice.

The rust requirement, on the other hand, is a personal deal-breaker. I
don't mean to pile on more negativity, but tl;dr we'll be replacing
(or just removing) clamav at work when there are no more secure,
rust-free versions available. And I'll be glad to not have to deal
with that for a few more years!
