Very BIG Problem with debian packages versioning...
Package: clamav-daemon
Version: 0.80-2
The problem is related to clamav debian packages maintained by ... and
hosted here:
deb http://people.debian.org/~sgran/debian woody main
I've 2 identical machines. These are versions installed in the 2 machines:
server1# dpkg -l | grep clam
ii clamav 0.80-2 Antivirus scanner for Unix
ii clamav-base 0.80-2 Base package for clamav, an anti-virus
utili
ii clamav-daemon 0.80-2 Powerful Antivirus scanner daemon
ii clamav-freshcl 0.80-2 Downloads clamav virus databases from
the In
ii clamav-testfil 0.80-2 Use these files to test that your
Antivirus
ii libclamav1 0.80-2 Virus scanner library
ii libclamav1-dev 0.80-2 Clam Antivirus library development files
server2# dpkg -l | grep clam
ii clamav 0.80-2 Antivirus scanner for Unix
ii clamav-base 0.80-2 Base package for clamav, an anti-virus
utili
ii clamav-daemon 0.80-2 Powerful Antivirus scanner daemon
ii clamav-freshcl 0.80-2 Downloads clamav virus databases from
the In
ii clamav-testfil 0.80-2 Use these files to test that your
Antivirus
ii libclamav1 0.80-2 Virus scanner library
ii libclamav1-dev 0.80-2 Clam Antivirus library development files
BUT THIS IS THE MATTER: on the 2 machines there are different versions
of clamd anche clamdscan. Why che debian packages have not been updated
???? Is it normal that the same debian package version contains
different program versions ????
server1# clamd -V
ClamAV 0.80/559/Thu Oct 28 15:08:33 2004
server1# clamdscan -V
ClamAV 0.80/559/Thu Oct 28 15:08:33 2004
server2# clamd -V
ClamAV 0.80/560/Fri Oct 29 09:32:46 2004
server2# clamdscan -V
ClamAV 0.80/560/Fri Oct 29 09:32:46 2004
Now, if i want v.560 on all machines must uninstall the packages and
reinstall them, because from the dpkg point of view the packages has not
changed !!
Thanks a lot.
