Do you have a 64-bit machine with 64-bit L*nux distribution (and have You experienced some issues with Avast!)?
Then You are unlucky, because Your distribution lacks the 100% 32-bit ABI compatibility, but … but also lucky, because You might try these builds with workarounds:
http://public.avast.com/~cimbal/avast4workstation-1.0.8-1.i586.rpm
http://public.avast.com/~cimbal/avast4workstation-1.0.8.tar.gz
http://public.avast.com/~cimbal/avast4workstation_1.0.8-2_i386.deb
NOTE: Please tell me whether this helped in Your case (and also specify what distribution/machine do You use).
NOTE: If You have some non-fixed engine installed, remove it first ( use rm -f /usr/lib/libavastengine*). Then, test this package.
Regards,
PC
PS: I’m not sure whether to distribute these fixed versions as standalone packages (because NOT all 64-bit distros are broken this way, and the original package will work there directly), or as an add-on patch (install normal package, then apply the patch).
From my point of view the patch is more correct, but users usually want and appreciate the complete package…
