Good evening,

I've submitted the file in question to numerous AV vendors (Sophos, Avast, Microsoft, McAfee, BitDefender, PandaSecurity, ...) and so far all I've heard back from have removed offending signatures from their databases or at the very least whitelisted the file. The latter of course is only a very temporary solution. I still hope the maintainer decides to move the file to a separate package, since I'd expect this is going to be a persistent problem.

For us this causes issues because our installation media contains nmap as part of a rescue system. This flags the whole ISO as infected. For tech savvy people this is an annoyance, for non tech savvy people this is a major obstacle when they're desperately in need of assistance already.
