Bug#325512: clamav-freshclam: Failed stop for init-script

[Alexander Mader]

Package: clamav-freshclam
Version: 0.85.1-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello,

first of all: Thank you very much for maintaining clamav(-freshclam) for
debian!

For a while, clamav-freshclam is failing with
"/etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam stop".

I tried sending signals different from TERM, succeded with QUIT, and
changed the init-script accordingly; please, see diff below.

Best regards,

Alexander.

Can you try 0.87-1 and let me know if you are still having this
problem?  I have revamped the init scripts to use lsb functions since
then, and it may have better kill handling.

Thanks,

Hello Stephen,

many thanks for your email. I didn't find a 0.87-1-deb that fast and so
I tried 0.87-0volatile1 and and after purge followed by install the
start-stop-thing is working without any problems so far. Which is a
little bit disturbing for me as there are no differences in the
/etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam to the one I made the changes to! I did
some system updates meanwhile---could this change the behaviour?

Best regards,

Alexander.
