For a on tech-savvy user this is difficult to diagnose
possibly exim4.template.conf should contain:
av_scanner = clamd:/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
Debian Policy requires that /var/run be a symlink to /run, so that
change should make no difference.

I would like to point out that a clean buster install does not create
the symlink, so the change would make a difference.
I feel that a package should not depend on erratic behavior elsewhere in
the system. Clamd-daemon uses /run not /var/run exim should reflect that
change.
Ultimately a new user installing buster runs into this problem. Whether
this is fixed in exin, clamd or debian installer is metter for debate.
should i report this elsewhere?
