Well,
Why not to add Clamav to your minit-scripts.spec as well? Why this way of packaging (separate -sysv) should be seen for all Fedora people now?

Certainly it could be a hint for community to do similar sub-packages for all the init scripts, but it seems that that way was not accepted...


This would need a rebuild of the package. I do not see the problem with
the current version: 'yum install ...' on default installations installs
the -sysv initscripts

Sure!

But the problem is something like "reputation".

Recently we chose antivirus for some wide-enough network, comparing all pro and contra. On of a little contra for Fedora's Clamav is that it is "strange packaged", and actually it has moved a bowl of weights, and some proprietary antivirus had been chosen. :( I think not because of "sysv" subpackages exactly, but because of some "suspicions/fears" inspired by it.
