clamav maintainer,
First, thank you for contributing this project to the distro, and
getting clamd working properly (something I've had trouble doing
myself). I do have one request, however -- and I know it's not a big
deal -- if you could build libclamav as a shared library.
This can be done by adding -no-undefined to libclamav_la_LDFLAGS in
libclamav/Makefile.am, then run "autoreconf -i -f -v". This will
increase the size of the patch, but it's really worth it to have shared
libs, as many programs and bindings will benefit. Both shared and
static libraries will be built by default; I usually add
--disable-static to the configure flags in this case, as I usually find
that static libs just take up space.
Thanks!
Yaakov
