(maintainer cc'ed) You've got a couple of options here: 1) If you haven't run "fink cleanup" since updating, then you may have the clamav-0.97 .deb archives. You can check this via fink scanpackages sudo apt-get update apt-cache policy clamav If the old files are listed, then you can downgrade via e.g. sudo apt-get install clamav=0.97.4-11 clamav-daemon=0.97.4-11 clamav7-shlibs=0.97.4-11 clamav7-dev=0.97.4-11 2) If you don't have the .debs, you can download the the prior package description: http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.7/stable/main/finkinfo/utils/clamav.info?revision=1.5 Save it to /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo so that it doesn't get overwritten. Then verify that everything is ok by using "fink dumpinfo -fallversions clamav". If 0.97.4-11 is listed as an available version, you should then be able to use fink install clamav-0.97.4-11 to downgrade. In either case you'll want either to hold off on using "fink update-all", or you'll need to remember to downgrade clamav by either of the methods above. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
