install-ClamAV-SA

[Mark Nienberg]

I'm trying to use the install-ClamAV-SA rpm version package to upgrade
my SA from 2.63 to 3.01 on Fedora Core 1.  I'm not having a lot of
luck.  First, to be sure I have the correct db referred to at the top
of the script output:

[root at gingham perl-rpm]# rpm -qa | grep db
gdbm-1.8.0-21
db4-4.1.25-14
gdb-5.3.90-0.20030710.41
gdbm-devel-1.8.0-21
db4-devel-4.1.25-14
compat-db-4.0.14-2

I hope one of those it what it wants, probably db4 I would guess.

Next, the perl-Test-Harness package won't build because it fails a
test, but the script output says I don't have to worry about it so I
won't. (But the "make test" output is at the bottom of this message if
you are interested).

The ClamAV.rpm install failed with this:

Warning: I am about to uninstall the old Dag Wieers' RPM packages
Warning: of ClamAV and install Oliver Falk's RPMs instead.

error: Failed dependencies:

Updating your virus.scanners.conf file to point to the ClamAV I just

I'm not too concerned about ClamAV at the moment.  I just reinstalled
Dag's rpm.


The first significant problem is that perl-DB_File.rpm builds OK, but
won't install due to this:

[root at gingham noarch]# rpm -Uvh perl-DB_File-1.810-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing...                ###########################################

Next the package perl-Digest-HMAC would not build from the install
script. But surprisingly, it did build when I tried it by hand with
"rpmbuild --rebuild".  Same for Digest-SHA1.

Things fell apart quickly after that, as failed dependencies piled up.
I think it boils down to 2 questions to help me get going again.

1. How to I overcome the perl-DB_file conflict with perl?  Should I
force it?
2. If I install the rpms that I manually built and run the script
again, will it skip the build/install for rpms that are already
successfully installed?  If so, I will work on them one-by one.

Thanks for any help.

P.S. just for completeness, here is the build failure for the test
harness:
