I have thought some more about this, and I think the smartest way to handle all of this is to move the logrotate part of the code back into clamav-daemon. It makes for a lot of code redundancy, but it will at least Do The Right Thing (TM). When -3 or so comes out, it will probably not be smart enough to delete an unnecessary logrotate file, so you may still have to do that part manually, but it should be smart enough not to recreate it erroneously. Sorry about the breakage. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
