This may sound a bit silly, I'm not sure, but why not just prompt the
user during upgrade?  Several apps are always popping up dialogs for
each upgrade cycle (sysstat's log format *always* changes for some
reason :).  You could just say "The new clamav-milter requires clamav-
daemon to be installed.  If you're using a remote daemon, make sure to
edit /etc/clamav/clamav-milter.conf and add its location.  Otherwise,
make sure you install clamav-daemon now.  [OK]"

I'm not sure if apt supports doing more advanced actions like actually
asking the user if they want to install clamav-daemon on the spot, but
you get the idea.

(And yes, I apt-get dist-upgrade.)
