Impex release information

Release Type: Patch

The IMPEX 5.8.2 release

This is a patch release fixing a regression introduced in the latest release 5.8.1. The bug is in the AV engine common package that caused the Ikarus, Trend and Eset engines to not download any new AV definitions. The update mechanism believed, incorrectly, that the system was being used at the moment of the update. The other engines were not affected.
