[Pkg-clamav-devel] Proposed text for clamav, libclamunrar VUA

[Michael Tautschnig]

Hi volatile team,

I'd propose the following text for update announcements (clamav was uploaded for
both etch and lenny, libclamunrar is lenny-volatile only); autobuilders are
probably still working on those packages as
http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile/pool/volatile/main/c/clamav/ doesn't
yet show anything other than amd64 and powerpc for lenny, and amd64 only for
etch:

=================================================================================

Package              : clamav
Version              : 0.96+dfsg-4~volatile1 (Lenny), 
                       0.96+dfsg-3volatile1 (Etch)
Importance           : medium

Upstream published version 0.96.

This is a new release, which includes a bytecode interpreter to support complex
detection routines in signatures, improved signatures, additional archive
formats, and several other new features.  The changes are not strictly required
for operation, but users of the previous version in volatile might get warnings.

The bugfixes that are part of this release include security fixes.  If you use
clamav, we highly recommend you upgrade to this version.

=================================================================================

In parallel to clamav, also non-free libclamunrar was uploaded. I'd suggest the
following text, but you might want to add some reference to the clamav VUA in
here.

=================================================================================

Package              : libclamunrar
Version              : 0.96-2~volatile1 (Lenny)
Importance           : low

Upstream published version 0.96 of the clamav suite, a new release. Hence also
libclamunrar was updated. The changes are not strictly required for operation of
the libclamunrar package.

If you use clamav and libclamunrar, we recommend you upgrade to this version.

=================================================================================

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Best,
Michael
