I have just added considerably to the Clam+SA install.sh script. It now 
asks you whether you want it to install ClamAV or not. If it doesn't 
install it for you, it asks you where ClamAV is installed. It has 
sensible defaults set, so you can just do what it suggests.

I'll give it another test in the morning to check it all works (getting 
late now) and will post it on the website if it all goes okay.

Then you can still use my package to install the ClamAV perl module and 
SpamAssassin without necessarily having to install another copy of 
ClamAV that you didn't want, if you want to use an RPM of it.

That way no-one has to duplicate any effort writing yet another RPM of 
ClamAV.
:-)
