It looks like this is some sort of GUI app for managing software installation? Presumably whoever wrote it needs to fix it, so I would submit a bug report about all of this if I were you. > chown: cannot access `/var/run/clamav': No such file or directory > dpkg: error processing clamav-base (--configure): > subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 > dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of clamav-freshclam: > clamav-freshclam depends on clamav-base (= 0.88.4-1ubuntu2.1); however: > Package clamav-base is not configured yet. > dpkg: error processing clamav-freshclam (--configure): > dependency problems - leaving unconfigured > Errors were encountered while processing: > clamav-base > clamav-freshclam This is Ubuntu's "brilliant" idea to remove /var/run on every reboot. They try to hack around it in every single init script, but as you can see, they might not have done so successfully in this case. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Last yeer I kudn't spel Engineer.
