Command-line switches are inappropriate to an MTA setup. Configuration options
are inline with Exim. In practice, as previously discussed in this bug, most
people will have ClamAV up-to-date and won't need to worry about this.

This is dead code for most people and there's no need for it to remain in. I
expect that there will be some polls and at some point in the next couple of
years we'll be confident that ClamAV < 0.95 truly is dead, and remove the old
logic entirely.

For the hypothetical OS distributions doing such things, either they are or
they are not. Mostly, when they update ClamAV, they can change the build
option for Exim too. They can build Exim with a dependency on ClamAV >= 0.95,
or a dependency on ClamAV < 0.95. If the package management system can't
manage this but they still want to support crazy patched ClamAV, then they're
On Their Own -- I've provided as much backwards compatibility support as I am
willing to.
