However, the point of the pymilter source package is not to test clamav, it's to distribute the source to pymilter. Falsely triggering virus scanners does not help it achieve this aim. So, the tarball could be fixed to rot-13 the virus files stored in it, and re-rotate them when the test suite is run. (If virus scanners perhaps try rot-13, then instead encrypt the viruses with a key included in the source package, but that's probably overkill.) -- see shy jo
