Dag Wieers has it packaged for redhat/fedora (along with about every
other program known to man...).

His stuff works best if you add his repostiory to your apt or yum
configuration and let the programs work out the dependencies. He also
has clamav but I'm not sure if the clamd socket location/ownership is
fixed so the two work together out of the box.  Sometimes it is harder
to fix up a couple of lines in someone else's installation than to do
it yourself from scratch.

There are several independent apt/yum repositories like this at the
moment but they are working on consolidating and making an effort
to avoid conflicting dependencies.
