CLAMAV-CONFIG(1)

💅 CLAMAV-CONFIG(1) — the Debian GNU/Linux manual page, bestie edition

okay so picture this: you're in the <lavender>Debian GNU/Linux</lavender> universe, you got libclamav sitting there all gorgeous, and you need a little helper to tell you how to actually build stuff against it. Enter clamav-config. she's the manual page. she's the moment. let's get into it 💖

✨ NAME ✨

clamav-config — a script to get information about libclamav. that's it, that's the job, and she does it flawlessly. 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

clamav-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--cflags] [--libs]

look at her. short. sweet. iconic. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so clamav-config is this tool you use to configure — like, to figure out — the compiler and linker flags you should be using to compile and link programs that use libclamav. that's the whole vibe. she hands you the flags, you go build your thing. no cap. ✨

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• --version — prints the currently installed version of libclamav straight to standard output. she's telling you what era of libclamav you're living in. fr fr. 🗓️
• --libs — prints the linker flags that are necessary to link a program with libclamav. linker girlies, this one's for you. 🔗
• --cflags — prints the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program with libclamav. compiler girlies, same energy. 🛠️
• --prefix=PREFIX — if you specify this, she uses PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that libclamav was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options.

⚠️ okay this part is important, bestie, do not skip: this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. order matters. she is not flexible about this and honestly? respect. 🙈
