Hello!

Since the recent update of clamav I have the following problem when freshclam
automatically tries to update the db.

Dec  7 11:20:43 bitmachine1 freshclam[783]: Unexpected error when attempting to 
update database: daily
Dec  7 11:20:43 bitmachine1 freshclam[783]: fc_update_databases: 
fc_update_database failed: Failed to read/write file to database directory (10)
Dec  7 11:20:43 bitmachine1 freshclam[783]: Database update process failed: 
Failed to read/write file to database directory (10)

# ls -al

/usr/local/sbin/clamd

It fails to create the tmp-folder. No problem when I call freshclam
from a terminal.

What is wrong and how can I fix this issue?

Kind regards

  Andreas
