I was installing clamav 0.83 on a freebsd 5.4 system and I got the

clamav configure: error: The installed zlib version may contain a

I want to upgrade zlib to solve this but:
- I don't know how I can see what version of zlib I have at the moment?
use pkg_info|grep zlib
- I found the following advice on the freebsd site:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-05:18.zlib.asc
according to this I have to do the following:
# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
# cd /usr/src/lib/libz/
# make obj && make depend && make && make install
but I have no /usr/src/lib/libz/
maybe you didn't install source code when you installed your FreeBSD. You
still can do it using sysinstall now.
Good luck!
Thank you Yuan
You are right I didn't install the sourcecode, the instructions make a
lot more sense now :)
one other small question, pkg_info | grep zlib
gave me the following output;
jzlib-1.0.5_1 A re-implementation of zlib in pure Java
php4-zlib-4.3.10_2 The zlib shared extension for php
so no zlib? Why is that ? because I didn't install it with pkg_add?
