Well, I've screwed around with this for 3 days now, that's long enough. First gotcha for debian people is cmake is not installed, and when installed, it is NOT installed in a directory accessible to the user with a default $PATH, so the first thing I have to do is give it the full path to where its installed. And apparently there are no man pages, strike two. Second gotcha is cmake needs about 7 or so more bits installed that in 23 years of exclusively linux in this house I have never needed before just to get thru the configure and build something. Strikes 3 thru 9 or 10 Third gotcha is that the default build puts it in /usr/local, a normal occurrence for stuff built from tarballs, without building new stuff for /etc/init.d that tells it where to find the executables NOW. Depending on a 1/4 baked systemd on an older stretch install isn't doing one a bit of good unless perchance you are rebooting.
We can´t blame the ClamAV developers that we're cmake novices. I too was unfamiliar with cmake, so I'm on a steep learning curve as well. And it looks like Debian can do a better job by providing a cmake that actually works. Nothing to blame ClamAV for.
Please let us know when this is actually installable and working when the notes in INSTALL.md are followed. It is not ready for prime time now.
I beg to differ. I followed the INSTALL.md and it took me less than two hours tweaking the options to have a similar result as with the previous autotools. Note that I'm building in a openSUSE system, which provides %cmake macros in a similar way as %make macros that relieves one of the burden to figure out the distribution specific settings. I was pleasantly surprised how smooth the transition actually went. Just a handful of bugs, but that's what release candidates are for (to iron them out).
You can start by listing the dependencies AND the packages they are found in, in INSTALL.md so we can install them without any excitement.
The only additional package I needed was python-pytest, all other dependencies are identical.
