Hi,

as a starting point you could follow this procedure:

a) cd /usr/ports/security/clamav
b) make extract
c) cd work/clamav-whatever-version
d) patch -p0 < the.patch.file.provided.by.the.clamav.developer.diff
e) cd ../..
f) make install (as usual)

Hope this helps.

Best Regards
Leonidas Tsampros
