This is probably a feature rather than a defect. The scenario: I have clamuko running against the /home directory, checking opens and executions. It means that dazuko prevents me from opening or executing an infected file - excellent. But I also like to do some ad hoc scans, of e.g. new downloads, email arriving in ~/Mail, etc. When a file I scan like this is virus-infected, I only get to find out because clamav reports an error trying to open the infected file, instead of reporting the infection found. In other words, clamav is itself prevented from opening the file. I think it would be better for clamav to be able to scan all files, even if they are protected by clamuko. I do not know how all of this works but I can imagine all kinds of reasons why it may be difficult to do. But something to think about for the future? In the meantime, I have a quarantine directory which is excluded from clamuko and into which I can move suspect files for further analysis.
