[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#741675: clamav-base: Missing quoting and bogus generated config file

[Simon Edward Ward]

Package: clamav-freshclam
Version: 0.98.1+dfsg-1+deb7u2
Followup-For: Bug #741675

Dear Maintainer,

I installed the above version from stable-proposed-updates, same problem
with the LogRotate option in /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf. The LogRotate
option needs an argument, which, looking at the source I guess should be
true or false.

I changed the line from “LogRotate ” to “LogRotate true” and commented
out the PrivateMirror option, and started the clamav-freshclam service.
(The LogRotate option isn’t documented in freshclam.conf(5) so I guessed
without looking too much into what the correct value should be.)

Regards,
Simon Ward
