[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#693542: clamav-unofficial-sigs: Time limits for curl and rsync should be configurable.

[Carlos Maddela]

Package: clamav-unofficial-sigs
Version: 3.7.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The timeouts used by curl and rsync are hardcoded in the update script,
and therefore large database files will fail to completely download
for slower connections.  This will often happen for large files like
/var/cache/clamav-unofficial-sigs/si-dbs/securiteinfo.hdb.
Configuration options should be available to adjust these values.

I have patched my copy to get around this problem.  It is attached for
your perusal.
