https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=259641 Bug ID: 259641 Summary: security/clamav: Update to new bugfix release 0.103.4 (Direct commit to 2021Q4 branch) Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any URL: https://blog.clamav.net/2021/11/clamav-01034-and-01041 -patch-releases.html OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: yasu@freebsd.org CC: ports-secteam@FreeBSD.org Attachment #229264 maintainer-approval+ Flags: Created attachment 229264 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=229264&action=edit Patch file @ports-secteam I would like to request approval to make direct commit of attached patch to 2021Q4 branch. The patch updates security/clamav to new bugfix release 0.103.4. The reason I request direct commit rather than MFH is as following. * On September upstream changed their release and support policy as following. - They release Regular Feature Release (= x.y.0 release) more frequently. And x.y.z releases are supported until 4 months after the release of x.(y+1).0. - To compensate for the short lifetime of Regular Feature Releases, Long Term Support (LTS) Feature Release is introduced. A new LTS Feature Release will be identified approximately every two years and be supported for at least three years from the initial publication date of that LTS feature version. * Version 0.103.3 was identified as first LTS Feature Release. * After 2021Q4 branch was created, on main brach security/clamav was updated to 0.104.0 and security/clamav-lts was added. * Version 0.104.0 is first Regular Feature Release that new upstream policy is applied. There are large chages between 0.103.3 and 0.104.0 as upstream refactored their code base. * On November 3rd new bugfix releases 0.104.1 and 0.103.4 were released. On main branch I already updated both security/clamav and security/clamav-lts to their latest releases. * As is exlained above lifetime of 0.104.x isn't so long and there is large difference between 0.103.x and 0.104.x. Furthermore there isn't security/clamav-lts in 2021Q4 branch that can be selected as alternative for those who look for longer lifetime. * So merging 0.104.x to 2021Q4 isn't appropriate in this case and I select to update security/clamav to 0.103.3 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
