PDF User Manual for Avira AntiVir Server | Unix and Avira AntiVir Professional | Unix.
It is not completely up to date (as most installations are now RPM based), but gives great background information.
If you are using SUSE Linux, then note that as of openSUSE 11.3, there is a glitch when you use the SUSE security repository (see Bug 633771 – antivir cannot be installed because of missing libdazuko.so).
Basically there are two solutions to this:
- Ignore the dependency issue;
- Use the Avira repository.
The former seems to be a viable solution as per PDF User Manual, the installation proceeds as follows:
linking /usr/lib/AntiVir/guard/libdazuko.so to /usr/lib/AntiVir/guard/
libdazuko3compat2.so...
And indeed it does: these are the steps to follow, first for adding the security repository, then to install the package (click on images to view larger versions):
Add the download.opensuse.org/repositories/security/openSUSE_12.2/ repository
Start YaST2, choose Software, then Software Repositories
Click on “Add”
Choose “HTTP”, then click “Next”
Type the repository name “Security – openSUSE 12.2” and the URL “download.opensuse.org/repositories/security/openSUSE_12.2/”, then press “Next”
Trust the GnuPG Key that is used by the repository.
Verify the “Security – openSUSE 12.2” has been added.
Install Antivir (by Avira) and verify the location of /usr/lib/AntiVir/guard/libdazuko.so
Start YaST2, selecte “Software” and “Software Management”
Search for “antivir”, select “antivir” and press the “Enter” key
In the “Package Dependencies”, choose to “break” the antivir package. Then press “OK”.
Make sure a “+” appears in front of the “antivir” package.
Confirm any additional packages that need to be installed.
Watch the download and installation of the packages.
Quit YaST2
Verify that “/usr/lib/AntiVir/guard/libdazuko.so” (the file that was supposedly missing) does indeed exist.
(note that I’m running btrfs, so I have snapshots to which I can revert).
