Package: clamav
Version: 0.97.8+dfsg-1
Followup-For: Bug #727027
Dear Maintainer,
What has led to this situation is "Sourcefire" has released a new verion of
ClamAV (0.98.1) with additional functionality and possibly fixed your
compiling issue Noted in your previous listing.
This is becoming a serious issue. Especially for those of us that run PCI
compliant systems. Our QSA (Qualified Security Assessor) noticed our version
was behind and they don't particularly care for "behind" versions from vendor
that aren't either updated to latest version or at least maintained with
backports of patches to required API versions.
This package is neither at this point and it is forcing me to make my Debian
systems come under scrutiny that my "RedHat/CentOS" systems aren't coming
under, since they've been updated already. This wouldn't be such a bad thing,
except Freshclam announces to the world that things are not up to snuff.
What I did exactly: I watch logs from the updating engine FreshClam, telling
me this version is outdated. Here is the snippet from the relevant log:
WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
WARNING: Local version: 0.97.8 Recommended version: 0.98.1
Also 0.98 was released September 19th, 2013 and subsequently 0.98.1 was
released January 15th, 2014.
Please at least make some effort to either update this bug or other
remediation updates.
I thank you in advance for your work and hope you are well.
Sincerely and best wishes.
