Re: clamav-daemon broken after latest upgrade



Hi (sorry about top post).

When I tried "dist-upgrade" I only had security updates enabled. Since I allowed all repositories in my sources.list this has fixed it.

Many thanks.

Robert.

# dpkg-reconfigure clamav-daemon
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: clamav-daemon is broken or not fully installed

# apt-get upgrade gives me
The following packages have been kept back:
 clamav clamav-freshclam clamav-milter libclamav6
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.

How can I resolve this?  I've tried most of the usual tricks.

Including "apt-get -s dist-upgrade | less"??
If not - try it, and it looks OK run it for real:-
"apt-get dist-upgrade"  - which will install the packages that have
been held back. I suspect that will "fix" the problem.

If that doesn't look like fixing your problem, then look at:-
"apt-get -sf install | less" - which will "probably" offer to remove
the clamav packages that are not fully-installed.
