[Bug 133923] Re: clamav-freshclam cannot save pid

[Matt \Cyber Dog\ LaPlante]

Good to hear it's fixed, however I have an issue with the workaround.  I
don't know the details of the implementation of /var/run, however it
appears to be cleared at reboot.  I've already tried to create the
directory, but the daemons wind up dying whenever the machine restarts
because the directory goes away.  I also tried setting them to use the
top-level of /var/run, however the permissions don't seem to allow it.

Yes.  /var/run is a tempfs and so gets cleared on every reboot.  What you 
need to do is add a test for the existence of the PID dir and creating if 
it's not there in the freshclam init.

Alternatively, upgrade to the version in feisty-backports.
