 I have some difficulties in using Clamav on MacPorts...


 {{{

 so I tried (as on Ubuntu and Cygiwin) :


 {{{
 $ sudo freshclam
 }}}

 and I got:

 {{{
 ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /opt/local/etc/freshclam.conf
 }}}

 Gulp! So I tried (this worked on Cygwin, for example...) :


 {{{
 $ cd /opt/local/etc/
 $ sudo cp -p example-freshclam.conf freshclam.conf
 $ sudo emacs -nw freshclam.conf
 }}}

 ...and with Emacs I commented out the line


 {{{
 Example
 }}}

 So I tried :


 {{{
 $ cd
 $ sudo freshclam
 }}}

 but it results in

 {{{
 ERROR: Can't change dir to /opt/local/share/clamav
 }}}

 with

 {{{
 $ ls -lrt /opt/local/share/clamav
 ls: /opt/local/share/clamav: No such file or directory
 }}}

 ...and I am a little confused, now... :(

 Should I install some other packages? which?

 I haven't found any documentation about how to use Clamav on MacPorts...

 Any suggestions?

 Thanks,
  Angelo.
