Well, it's not as silly as it sounds. clamd used to open the logfile before changing uid to the User directive, and it appears it no longer does. That means that the /dev/fd/1 it gets handed be start-stop-daemon is owned by root, but it's now running as a different user. This looks like it is a change from the 0.8x versions. I'll try to work around it in the maintainer scripts. Thanks for the report. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
