[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#959150: Add support for Prelude

[Thomas Andrejak]

Hello

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, the 5.1 version is under GPLv2 but next version that will be release
shortly is under LGPLv2
https://www.prelude-siem.org/projects/libprelude/repository/revisions/55f478f4ae5aa8b30372e7a0e3cf20ebe52df889

So if I well understand, it will be OK with this new version ?

Is that the only issue that block the packaging for you ?

Regards
