I'm not sure why Bill made it do that, perhaps he can tell us (CCed)?

Bill, Richard is proposing that I change the configuration of
clamav-unofficial-sigs in Debian so that it detects if clamav-daemon is
running and only then issue reload commands. This will of course break
the clamd watchdog feature of clamav-unofficial-sigs, any thoughts?
