[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#870498: clamav-unofficial-sigs: Option -i (configuration information) shows nothing

[Alessandro Vesely]

Package: clamav-unofficial-sigs
Version: 3.7.2-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

/usr/sbin/clamav-unofficial-sigs -i produces a long
report, but the final part of it, after the head:
*** SCRIPT CONFIGURATION SETTINGS ***
is not at all informative.

A possible fix is as follows.  (Sorry I cannot send a
patch, I just edited it.)  Just a couple of lines:

          echo "*** SCRIPT CONFIGURATION SETTINGS ***"
          echo "declared from: $default_config"
          # -ale: this doesn't work with debian config
          # egrep -v "^#|^$" $default_config
          env -i bash -c ". $default_config; declare -p"
          echo ""
          exit

That way, output is as verbose as the preceding one.

BTW, may I encourage updates to use more numbers
(e.g. 005-clamav-unofficial*.conf) rather than
overwrite existing number?  I had overridden the
00-*.conf (to make reload_opt appropriate for me)
so I was missing curl_connect_timeout, which made
curl bail out.  If it had been in a 005-*.conf,
I would have got it.  Just noting the possibility.

Thank you for maintaining Debian
Ale
