Other users have reported this too, perhaps you should talk to Avira?

an explanation what could raise the detection could be made by the one who created the setup package. At least a guess would help so one could dismiss the report by avira.

I'm not interested in talking to avira; it's you who provide the software and it's up to you if you want to keep a certain group of users running avira on windows happy or not.

I don't care too much; I simply don't use the software then; it's easy for me :).

Have a nice weekend.

This issue vanishes as soon as "koch" is not compiled in release mode. I don't know any other way to fix it. It really seems some heuristic in Avira is wrong. However, it's easy to package another koch binary in the next version.
