Package: clamav-freshclam
Version: 0.90.3-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


When installing new clamav-freshclam, I get the following;

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>sudo dpkg --configure -a
Setting up clamav-freshclam (0.90.3-1) ...
Replacing config file /etc/cron.d/clamav-freshclam with new version
Starting database update:
Password:


At this point, I can do nothing and just abort the configure.  I suspect 
improper use of su.
