The updated provided fixes for (IIRC) 19 CVE bugs.
fairly impressive number (i had been wondering how clamav updates would be handled). incase its relevent, here is the config i had to (re?) introduce to get dans working again (which is the AV section): # OPTION: virusscan # If on, content will be scanned using virus engine setup in dansguardian.conf. # More options are available in dansguardian.conf. virusscan = on # OPTION: exceptionvirusextensionlist # The following file allow you to define file extensions # that should not be virus scanned. exceptionvirusextensionlist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionvirusextensionlist' # OPTION: exceptionvirusmimetypelist # The following file allow you to define mime types # that should not be virus scanned. exceptionvirusmimetypelist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionvirusmimetypelist' # OPTION: exceptionvirussitelist # File location of definition of sites not be virus scanned. exceptionvirussitelist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionvirussitelist' # OPTION: exceptionvirusurllist # File location of definition of URLs not be virus scanned. exceptionvirusurllist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionvirusurllist' # OPTION: dlmgrextensionlist # File location of file extensions to be handled by embedded download manager. dlmgrextensionlist = '/etc/dansguardian/dlmgrextensionlist' Two of these lines were already there, but i dont remember which. kk -- dansguardian updated packages may break installs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
