Once you have created the clamav user and group, please extract the archive:
<PRE>
$ zcat clamav-x.yz.tar.gz | tar xvf -
$ cd clamav-x.yz
</PRE>
Assuming you want to install the configuration files in /etc, configure
and build the software as follows:
<PRE>
$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
$ make
$ su -c "make install"
</PRE>
In the last step the software is installed into the /usr/local directory
and the config files into /etc. <SPAN CLASS="textbf">WARNING: Never enable the SUID
or SGID bits for Clam AntiVirus binaries.</SPAN>
