[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#578037: clamav disabled in debian stable

[Jan Lühr]

Package: clamav
Version: 0.94.dfsg.2-1lenny2
Severity: critical
Tags: security, lenny

Clamav has been disabled in lenny today:
/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon start
Starting ClamAV daemon: clamd LibClamAV Warning: 
***********************************************************
LibClamAV Warning: ***  This version of the ClamAV engine is outdated.     ***
LibClamAV Warning: *** DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq ***
LibClamAV Warning: ***********************************************************
LibClamAV Error: cli_hex2str(): Malformed hexstring: This ClamAV version has 
reached End of Life! Please upgrade to version 0.95 or later. For more 
information see  www.clamav.net/eol-clamav-094 and www.clamav.net/download

LibClamAV Error: Problem parsing database at line 742
LibClamAV Error: Can't load daily.ndb: Malformed database
LibClamAV Error: cli_tgzload: Can't load daily.ndb
LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/daily.cld: Malformed database
ERROR: Malformed database
 failed!

Since a broken AV-Scanner puts a whole infrastructure at risk, I think clamav 
should no longer be distributed with lenny.

Regards,
Jan
