make

make install

ldconfig -v

then /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd start

After 29 minutes, I gave up.  These are the two lines in clamd.log

I ran /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd start with the rc.d script.  I gave up
after 29 minutes of waiting, and did a make install of 0.102.4 and
started it back up.

http://talonator.pccc.com/clamav/ has the config.log, the clamd script
and the clamd.conf file

I see no indications that it's anything but all systems go until the
failure with the init script.

Interesting, what are the right libcurl libs?

re: typescript, also in the http://talonator.pccc.com/clamav/ dir.  I
started from scratch on this untarring, making and installing.
