Installing from source

• Uninstall any old version: see UninstallClamAV (Note: this isn't essential, but removes sources of problems).
• wget the source gzip file: see WhichVersion
• untar the source to an appropriate location. Note that most modern versions of tar will automatically ungzip for you.
• ensure you have a user clamav and group clamav.
• Configure the build:
• for clamav-milter support ./configure --enable-milter
• to support new features ./configure --enable-experimental
• otherwise ./configure
• run "make"
• if you did not uninstall the previous version, stop any running services.
• as root, run "make install" to install the binaries
• restart any relevant services.
• Run freshclam manually, to ensure your AV definitions are up to date.
