Hello there,

I have a working and updated Debian Linux Etch release 
kernel 2.6.18-5-686.

I have downloaded Clamav source tar.gz version 0.91.2.


After having unpacked it and installed it with the following commands:

        ~$ ./configure --prefix=home/alessandro/clamav --disable-clamav 
        ~$ make
        ~$ make install

[here /home/alessandro is my home path],

and having created the clamav user with the following commands:

        ~# groupadd clamav
        ~# useradd -g clamav -s /bin/false -c "Clam AntiVirus" clamav

and having removed the Example voice in the 

        ~/clamav/etc/clamd.conf
        ~/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf

files;

when I finally launch freshclam:

        ~/clamd/bin/freshclam

I get the following output:

ClamAV update process started at Fri Nov 30 18:20:25 2007

What should I have to do to fix it?

Thank you very much.
