-1, Flamebait ;-)
Jima: Can you estimate 'when' it's been discussed before ?
Why? First of all, the package doesn't come from freshrpms, but
rpmforge, as I've never packaged it on freshrpms ;-)
I didn't spend the time to find out where it was from - sorry about that
- but those two repos are the additional ones I have enabled on my system.
Second, you should contact Dries and suggest :
1) To remove the rpmforge clamav packages for the Fedora releases which
have them in Extras
I might even have enabled the wrong fc release with rpmforge repo, I'll
need to check that out.
2) To consider using the clamav-db name instead of clamav-data
Which name fits the guidelines ? {-data is currently in extras}
Then also poke the Extras clamav maintainer to have the proper
"Obsoletes: clamav-db <= last-known-V-R" added to the clamav-data
package.
This will achieve what I though we would want in fedora;, but would also
be susceptible to rpmforge releasing a later V or R, and causing a
change to the rpmforge packages, wouldn't it ?
I read several complaints on fedora-list about the way clamav is
packaged in Extras, I think that's why a lot of people use the RPMs from
other repos...
I don't have time at the moment to scan the archives. Can you remember
if these seemed like fixable issues while still fitting the fedora
packaging guidelines ?
Thanks, DavidT.
