AVG 8.5 anti-virus pour linux-udition freebsd Manual

2.1.1. Using rpm, deb packages

The rpm and deb installation packages extract files directly into installed directory.

For installation from the rpm file (Linux only), use the following command in your
shell (accessible for example using the xterm application within your X window
system):

rpm –Uvh avg-8.0.{release}-{version}.{platform}.rpm

For installation from the deb file (Linux only), use the following command in your
shell (accessible for example using the xterm application within your X window
system):

dpkg –i avg-8.0.{release}-{version}.{platform}.deb

for details.

2.1.2. Using sh archive

The .sh archive is created by Makeself 2.1.5, utility for building self-extractable
archives on Unix. For details see homepage at:

http://megastep.org/makeself/

If you downloaded the .sh archive via a web browser, you have to set the executable
rights first:

chmod +x avg85lms-{release}-{version}.{platform}.sh

To launch the installation, it is sufficient to run the self-extractable archive as a root:

./avg85lms-{release}-{version}.{platform}.sh

This will check the archive integrity and free space on harddisk, extract itself to a
temporary directory /tmp, run the install script, and prompt the user to do the
following:

Agree AVG installation,

Confirm License agreement,

Confirm detected platform,
