[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#1034789: clamav-freshclam: does not respect debconf settings

[Xabier Oneca]

Package: clamav-freshclam
Version: 0.103.8+dfsg-0+deb10u1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch d-i

Dear Maintainer,

I've tried preseeding the package with the autoupdate_freshclam template
question:

  clamav clamav-freshclam-freshclam/autoupdate_freshclam string manual

But the Systemd service always gets enabled.

The package has SysV and Systemd services. The SysV type is handled correctly,
but the Systemd one is left always enabled by default, whether it is set as
manual or not.

Honor debconf autoupdate config for Systemd service

When debconf clamav-freshclam/autoupdate_freshclam config var is set to
"manual", the Systemd daemon must be disabled.
