That makes sense, I'll look at that shortly. > Also, it's not really clear to me why clamav-data isn't used for this > purpose, but that's a separate matter. Because it's a seperately maintained snapshot package - depending on it would mean downloading new snapshots and having freshclam do downloads simultaneously. Seems like overkill to me. The databases included in the package are really only intended for bootstrapping it. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
