Package: exim4
Version: 4.92-8+deb10u3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

A clean install of buster as an smtp mail server

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
exim4.template.conf contains:

av_scanner = clamd: /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl

clean buster clamav-daemon uses /run/clamav/clamd.ctl

For a on tech-savvy user this is difficult to diagnose
possibly exim4.template.conf should contain:

av_scanner = clamd:/run/clamav/clamd.ctl

instead.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Changing this to the above made clamd scanning from exim4 operational is
was not before.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
