ClamXav & Fink

ClamXav comes with its own installer for the clamav engine. The installer, however, is not as frequently updated as is the clamav engine itself, yielding:

LibClamAV Warning: ********************************************************
LibClamAV Warning: ***  This version of the ClamAV engine is outdated.  ***
LibClamAV Warning: *** DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/faq.html ***

in the log files. The fink version of clamav is much more recent. To make clamXav use the fink version follow this procedure:

1. Download the lastest clamXav (if this is the first install preceed like here: http://www.clamxav.com/index.php?page=FAQ
   
2. Run the removeEngine script
3. Run fink install clamav
4. Run fink install clamav-daemon
5. Edit ~/Library/Preferences/uk.co.markallan.clamxav.plist and set User Defined clamav Path to /sw (or whereever your fink installation is)
6. If not already there copy ClamXav to /Applications
