Shouldn't the conf files be in /usr/local/etc/ ??? That's how it works for me and my log file is owned by clamav
That is dependant upon who built the binaries and the choices they made when doing so. If this were standardized there would be fewer instances of multiple versions of libs, executables, and config files installed on systems. As a minimum, packagers should describe in their docs where things go. My guess is most noobies would still not read it, but those who try to debug the mess they have would have another tool to work with.
Agreed. Interestingly, it made me look at my setup again and, because I run Mimedefang, I have "User defang" in my clamd.conf clamav belongs to group defang and the log file permissions are 0660 clamav.clamav yet it still works on every clamav version including 0.85 and 0.85.1
My brain hurts.
I build clamav from source using default configure (even though I'm running Fedora 3.)The lesson to learn is: know your system and don't trust packagers.
