[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#921399: closed by Scott Kitterman <debian at kitterman.com> (Re: ClamAV Needs (live-updates) on Post Install)

[Brian Holaday]

I will add this tad bit in my script. I just think that once the package is
installed:  freshclam needs to run for the first time before doing a scan
and gathers the latest definitions. I just would like to see output that it
happened then trust the daemon to run after just fine.
