Installing

ClamAV can be found for Ubuntu in the apt repository. Run this command to install ClamAV:

apt-get install clamav

Red Green Repeat Adventures of a Spec Driven Junkie Setting up ClamAV on macOS 09 Aug 2019. My preferred anti-virus system is ClamAV and I had trouble getting it running on macOS recently. Install and Configure ClamAV for MacOS To enable Malware Scanning with an Acunetix installation on MacOS, you will first need to install ClamAV. Since there is no native MacOS build for ClamAV, we need to first install a mechanism to package ClamAV for installation.

If you need clamd, you may also want to run:

apt-get install clamav-daemon

If you require support for scanning compressed RAR files you first need to enable the non-free archive, and then you can install the RAR-plugin using:

apt-get install libclamunrar6

There are two classes of clamav packages available for Ubuntu users:

Released Set

Clamav For Mac

The released set (release, *-updates, and *-security) are patched for security updates. Following extensive testing of clamav and the packages that use it in the backports repository, they may be updated to a newer version. These are official Ubuntu packages and supported by community developers.

Clamav For Mac Os X

Backports

The Ubuntu backports repository will contain the newest clamav version that has been at least lightly tested to work with that version. These packages can be installed by enabling the backports repository on your system.
Ubuntu packages are maintained by Ubuntu MOTU Developers.
