We have havp, dansguardian, and python-clamav to deal with. And libclamunrar which is non-free but still. - cuddle with the release team and ask them nicely for a transition slot. - once everything is in unstable and nobody is screaming wait for it to migrate to testing (and still nobody is screaming). - cuddle with the release team once again. This time for a transition in stable. [0] The word 'build' is a synonym for working in this context. > Thanks, > Rhonda Sebastian _______________________________________________ Pkg-clamav-devel mailing list [email protected] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-clamav-devel
