Package: clamav-base (0.90.1-2)

base package for clamav, an anti-virus utility for Unix

Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit for Unix. The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon in the clamav-daemon package, a commandline scanner in the clamav package, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet through the clamav-freshclam package. The programs are based on libclamav2, which you can use in your own software.

This package mainly manages the clamav UNIX account. It's not really useful without the clamav package. It also handles configuration for both the clamav-daemon and the clamav-milter packages.
