[clamav-users] RHEL 6 Clam AV Installation

[Thomas McCourt (tmccourt)]

Hello Jason,

Using Yum, I can do the following command and download both Epel-release and clamav. This of course, downloads 99.2 (not the beta version).

yum install -y epel-release
yum install -y clamav


Duck]# yum install -y epel-release

I am wondering if it is because you capitalized the ‘E’ in epel-release. Try it by lowercasing it, to see if it works.
Double checking- capitalizing the ‘e’ in epel-release finds no results.


Thank you,


Tom McCourt
