Installation of clamd at AlmaLinux 10

1

Hello,

are you able to propperly use clamd package at Alma Linux 10.0. I have enabled epel and installed package clamd-1.4.3-1.el10_1.x86_64.
The problem is that I took openssl error:
/usr/sbin/clamd: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libclamav.so.12: undefined symbol: EVP_MD_CTX_get_size_ex, version OPENSSL_3.4.0

I have got only openssl 3.2.2 at my system:

openssl version

OpenSSL 3.2.2 4 Jun 2024 (Library: OpenSSL 3.2.2 4 Jun 2024)

Do you know way how to propperly install clamd?

Thank you for a response.

Lukáš

Hello

My clamd version is “1.4.2”.
However, yours is “1.4.3”.

I also checked the EPEL test repository,
but “1.4.3” isn’t available there.

What happens when you run yum list clamd?

Hello
When I tried to build clamav-1.4.3-1.el10.src.rpm using mock, Therefore, there may be some problem on the epel side.
Feedback is needed from epel.

p.s
I reported a bug in epel

Hello, I have tried various solutions, but I think there are still risks in using openssl 3.4, so I recommend using 1.4.2. Here is how to downgrade:

sudo dnf remove clamd clamav-lib clamav-freshclam -y
sudo dnf install clamd-1.4.2-1.el10_0
clamav-lib-1.4.2-1.el10_0
clamav-freshclam-1.4.2-1.el10_0

Is there any Solution other than using old Version yet? :thinking:

ok - update - updated AlmaLinux 10.0 to 10.1 - and it’s working now … ^^
