Rustc Version 1.89 and Oracle Solaris

Oracle Solaris does come with rustc and cargo, but it may be possible it will be not be the latest version. For example I am working with ClamAV 1.5.x and it required a later version. If you cannot wait for a new version to appear in Solaris here is what you can do:

Key points:

• Ref: https://github.com/psumbera/solaris-rust
• Tested on Solaris 11.4.84.201.1

Building and Installing ClamAV 1.4.x LTS on Solaris 11.4

ClamAV is an open-source antivirus engine which is widly used. Problem has been that since v1.0.0 onwards the build process changed and didn't work on Solaris. Now you can build and run it on Solaris 11.4. 

Key points:

• At this time ClamAV does not support Solaris, but I have filed bug reports
• Using ClamAV 1.4.2 LTS (https://www.clamav.net/downloads)
• Tested on Solaris 11.4.79.189.2 onwards and Solaris 11.4.81 CBE
• I am miss basic steps i.e. creating usernames, etc
• Installation will be put into /usr/local/clamav142
