Looking closer, I think now that cl_initialize_crypto and

CLAMAV_PRIVATE to CLAMAV_PUBLIC in libclamav/libclamav.map.

Should discuss with upstream.

Sure, but I postpone this now, to see, if Sebastian managed to convince upstream to call cl_initialize_crypto inside of cl_init.
That would make such a discussion void.

Not very well maintained means in this case completely unmaintained
since three years. Given that it has now 5 RC bugs, it's probably best
to remove it from the archive.

Upstream havp offered to do a new release to fix this issue, so depending on 
how hard the RC bugs are to fix, it might be worth an NMU.

Apart from the clamav API change, there are:

#689892: This has a patch.
#689778: is a duplicate of #689892.
#582306: This is a pseudo-bug from a time, where clamav itself was
         perceived as to volatile for stable. (Could just be closed.)
#640601: This claims the installation fails, but I can't reproduce that.
         Instead the init script fails:
         Mounting /var/lib/havp/havp.loop under /var/spool/havp ...
         mount: Could not find any loop device.

- python-pyclamav: haven't look at it yet.

I just looked into this one and the attached patch should be enough,
but
I'm not sure how to test that.

Scott, since you are the only uploader of python-pyclamav, can you
verify that this patch is good?

I can try it.

OK, but you can wait until we know definitely what upstream will do.

By the way, python-pyclamav seems to be dead upstream since 2008 and
superseeded by python-pyclamd, which seems to be unmaintained in Debian

since 2011, while the last upstream version is from 2014-06-23.

You might want to consider to take over python-pyclamd and remove
python-clamav from unstable.

Python-pyclamd doesn't fully replace python-clamav.  It requires little enough 
maintenance that I think it's worth keeping.

I'll look into the patch and pyclamd.

I see.

Best regards,
Andreas
