Package: clamav-freshclam
Version: 0.98.7+dfsg-0+deb8u1
Dear maintainer,
Thanks for packaging ClamAV for Debian! There is a problem,
however, with the file /etc/logrotate.d/clamav-freshclam under
systemd: it fails if clamav-freshclam is not running as a daemon
(such as being run via a cron job, as is the case on my system).
In particular, if the daemon is not active, "systemctl -q is-active"
returns an error value of 3, which causes the script to fail.
The solution is to add "|| :" to the end of that line. The attached
patch does exactly that. Could you please apply it.
I'm guessing systemd is still new to all of us---certainly to me!
Yours truly,
John Zaitseff
