There are a couple of bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=clamav&product=Fedora%20EPEL Some also have security impact. Basically the problem is that it is extremly hard to provide the ABI/config stability for clamav. Combined with a few questionable decisions when it came to packaging + a not-so-active maintainer and we have a basically orphaned package in EPEL. I've spoken to a few Fedora packagers who where interested in maintaining the package. However the premise for them was that they can also decide how the Fedora package should look like - and at that time the current maintainer had strong feelings about this topic... If you could initiate a discussion on epel-devel, I can ping a few of the previously interested people... fs -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
