yes, but both freshclam and clamd, starting from the same package version,
have exactly the same behaviour, failing to start with exactly the same
error message. So the above information is likely pertinent to freshclam as
well.

What is the appropriate debian policy in this case?  File another, more or
less identical, bug report for the clamav-daemon package?  Or can the same
bug id refer to two different packages, if they are both simultaneously
affected in the same way and originate from the same source package?  Or
should it be duplicated, even if it probably is indeed the same bug
affecting two packages? I'm asking so that I know what to do in such a case,
should it happen again.

thanks, best regards
Giacomo Mulas
