[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#578133: clamav-daemon: clamav contains remote detonator

Package: clamav-daemon
Version: 0.94.dfsg.2-1lenny2
Severity: normal

Apparently the ClamAV software contains a remote detonator so the clamav
team can disable the software through an update sequence. This can knock any
mailserver (for example) offline running the version they deem fit to
disable.

Please remove this code in at least the debian package, or replace it by one
that does not run updates but not simply bomb out the daemon.
