Hello,

I'm the primary packager for clamav on Ubuntu.  Getting the current clamav 
packages to work on an older system like 10.04 takes some work that I haven't 
had time to do.

I'm a volunteer developer, so your ability to find someone who will like a fire 
under me is probably somewhat limited.  I had planned on working on today, but 
reading crap like this is totally demotivating.  I'll probably spend the time 
on paid work instead.
