Bug#783256: jessie-pu: package clamav/0.98.6+dfsg-1+deb8u1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: jessie
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
There's copy/paste error in the clamav-daemon postinst that will cause an
upgrade failure if a custom pidfile location is in use. We didn't push a fix
for this earlier, since we thought the bug would only be triggered very rarely.
Yesterday, Ubuntu had a new release with a clamav version that had this same
error and got stacks of bug reports. I expect Debian will be the same and our
initial assessment that this would occur infrequently was wrong.
The fix is trivial and has no regression risk (if somehow it's still wrong, it
will just continue not to work). Given this seems to be rather more common
that we thought, I'd like to get a fix out for Jessie most soon. Debdiff
attached.
