clamav

#1 Post by froda »

Hi,

I have installed clamav and it seems that clamtk follows but when i run clamtk from the start menu nothing happens and when I check my installed software clamtk is not there, although it is listed in my start menu if you understand what I mean. I have tried to run fix broken command but I`m not sure I got it right.

Does anyone have any clue?

Kind regards | froda

clamtk is not a dependency of clamav: you will need to install it. Not sure why it would be appearing in any menus if you haven't.

I don't know what you mean by that (CODE: SELECT ALL) is that something should run in the terminal?

Yes. You run the text in the box, as a normal user: IE you have the $ prompt in the terminal.

You might want to start with some basic terminal commands like

Code: Select all

$ ls

Code: Select all

$ dir

Code: Select all

$ cd
