Keep your Clamav updated using debian APT volatile

May 3, 2009

You can easily keep your debian Clamav updated by using apt-get. All you need to do is enter the volatile repository in your /etc/apt/source-list file. Please only use either etch/volatile or lenny/volatile with

deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free
or
deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main contrib non-free

After adding the entry run:

# apt-get update

# apt-get install clamav-daemon

# apt-get install clamav-freshclam

Once all the installation is successfully done you may enter-

# freshclam

# clamd -V

to see everything is up2date. :)
