yeah, I'm even on that list too...

I was thinking that since /etc/selinux/.../file_contexts was part of the
distribution, and it already contained all but one context for the
various clam packages, that amendments to that file would come from
upstream.  ;-(

As for the rpmforge list, there was a request to use a modified spec
file to generate rpm's for clamav for this very same problem but it
isn't getting done.

I suppose if nothing else, someone who searches the CentOS list will
have the appropriate command to clean it up each time a new clamav is
released...

chcon -t clamd_t /var/clamav -R

Thanks

Craig
