Amavis/Arc

Hi,

I'm trying to install amavis on our mail server to virus scan the email
passing through it...  I've downloaded the current snapshot of amavisd, and
installed the perl modules it needs using CPAN as the documentation
suggests.  I've also downloaded source for the various archiving utilities
it wants, and I'm in the process of installing those as well...  When I do a
./configure for amavis, it finishes up with the following message...

checking for arc... no
configure: error: Sorry, you need arc

Now, I've downloaded the arc521 source, and unpacked it.  The install
instructions for this are virtually non-existent, but when I try to do a
"make" or "make arc", I get the following...

[root@adelie arc521]# make
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arc.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arcadd.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arccode.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arccvt.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arcdata.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arcdel.c
gcc -O -DBSD=1 -c arcdos.c
arcdos.c:35: redefinition of `struct timeval'
make: *** [arcdos.o] Error 1
[root@adelie arc521]#

Reading the make file (as best I can), there doesn't seem to be any way to
compile this specifically for Linux.  Is there another way of installing
arc, or is there a way to convince amavis to install without arc?  The last
time I saw a .arc archive was a very long time ago, I doubt anyone actually
uses it anymore.

Jim.

It's much easier to stand on the shoulders of
giants if they happen to be stackable.
