It looks like we won't have to change any of the rdepends.

I attempted to revert the 0010 patch prior to adding 
https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-devel/commit/78ee2250aeec46c91017c735712140d69474b903 but failed.

I decided to stop before I broke it, so I'd appreciate it if one of you could 
have a look.

What's the right process for reverting a patch using git-dpm do you think?  
this is the second time I failed at it.
