I could reproduce the problem with this VM image.
Installing clamav-freshclam with apt works fine, but installing it with
apper results in the broken HTTPProxyServer line.
apper uses packagekit, so I tried it directly with that:
pkcon install clamav-freshclam
This also produced the broken configuration.
From a brief look at the packagekit source it seems as if packagekit
sets the http_proxy environment variable to a bogus value (I think -1).
This is then used by clamav-freshclam, which leads to the broken
configuration.
If the http_proxy environment variable is set when starting pkcon, it is
respected and ends up in freshclam's configuration file.
Obviously, packagekit should not set the http_proxy environment variable
to a bogus value.
Therefore I'm reassigning this bug to packagekit.
Best regards,
Andreas
