ClamAV 0.94.x end of life - with prejudice

ClamAV 0.94.x end of life - with prejudice

[Security] Posted Oct 6, 2009 15:22 UTC (Tue) by corbet

The ClamAV project has announced the end of support for version 0.94.x - and that doesn't mean just stopping updates. "Starting from 15 April 2010 our CVD will contain a special signature which disables all clamd installations older than 0.95 - that is to say older than 1 year. This move is needed to push more people to upgrade to 0.95 . We would like to keep on supporting all old versions of our engine, but unfortunately this is no longer possible without causing a disservice to people running a recent release of ClamAV." Upgrading to a recent version seems like a good idea for those who depend on ClamAV.
