This "Binääritiedosto" comes from grep, because it thinks /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf is a binary file. Probably there is some character in there which is invalid in finnish locale. For the full message from grep, see e.g.: $ grep ELF /bin/grep Binääritiedosto /bin/grep täsmää hakuun Using the '-a' flag of grep avoids this problem: $ grep -a ELF /bin/grep ELF<binary data> Thus I changed clamav's maintainer scripts to use that flag. > The string seems to originate from variable CLAMAVCONF that in turn > is propably content of file /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf but in there > I don't see any accented characters, nor word "Binääritiedosto", it > is all english and .. judging by the file timestamp, it just got > overwritten by the upgrade process so I don't even have the original > offending content any more. Well, it's not all english: > # Proxy: http://0�:/ > HTTPProxyServer 0� This is very likely the culprit. Did you perhaps use packagekit (or a frontend for it) to install clamav? If so, have a look at bug #777481 [1]. Best regards, Andreas 1: https://bugs.debian.org/777481
