421159 - Teach ClamAV how to unpack old-style installers (as used by Seamonkey)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P3)

Description

Spun off from bug 403023 comment 3. We need a util that can unpack the old style windows installers (and linux too?), so that ClamAV can scan them.

not something for server-ops to code...

KaiRo, can you help with this ?

Sorry, my time is scarce as it is and to be fair, I neither know what exactly we'd need to create here, let alone even how to unpack those old installers (forgive me, even current stable SeaMonkey 1.1.x releases qualify as "old" for me wrt to a lot of technology used).

Mass move of bugs from Release Engineering:Future -> Release Engineering. See

KaiRo, is this still needed?

Comment 6

[Robert Kaiser]

If we want to scan into installer files of the old, now EOLed, SeaMonkey 1.x releases, then it might, but I think it's not worth the time and resources potentially sent on it.

Good enough for me.
