[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#942172: clamav-daemon: After upgrade, clamd cannon create /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl and stop.

[Hugo Lefeuvre]

Hi,

I did not notice this bug during my tests. I have just tried to reproduce
it by upgrading a jessie system from 0.100.3+dfsg-0+deb8u1 to
0.101.4+dfsg-0+deb8u1 and did not experience any issue restarting
clamav-daemon.

Furthermore, /var/run/clamav/ belonging to root:root or clamav:root does
not seem to change anything on my system. My understanding is that
/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl is created by systemd, not by the daemon itself.

Also, I don't think chown clamav /var/run/clamav should survive a restart.

Filipe: did you also experience this bug?

Thanks.

regards,
Hugo
