Description Mitchell Berger 2010-11-15 22:02:59 UTC

Description of problem:
Since yesterday, clamav 0.96.1 has been producing warning

October 25, and 0.96.1 dates back to mid-May.

Additional info:

I see that an update is in Bodhi and was pushed to testing a week ago.
I'll test it and provide feedback there, but it would be nice if this
could get pushed to production soon since it has started to send out
disconcerting warnings to users.

Please vote in bodhi for this update:

If this update gets 3 points positive karma, it will be pushed to stable.
I think it's no need to leave this bug open, because update is ready.

Comment 2 Mitchell Berger 2010-11-24 02:21:10 UTC

Well, what I was trying to convey was that the update had been
waiting for long enough that the decision to push it without
waiting for 3 votes could have been made, and that since the
behavior of clamav had changed such that it was spitting out
disconcerting warnings, it might be appropriate to do so.

In any event, the update has now been pushed, so I'll close
the ticket.
