yes Matus, you are absolutely right.
I have paid for my stupidness and was needed to reinstall my Computer because of the
"white screen of death".
See the embedded Image what i mean:
WSOD
It seems the "Ubunturized" ClamAV Version don't check the downloaded signature
files (I have enabled this option in my freshclam.conf), in the original ClamAV this
always happen and is logged into freshclam.log - for each Database file
I don't know if this feature isn't implemented on Ubuntu side, or it isn't
logged only.
Then on each Upgrade Ubuntu replaces my whole permissions for ClamAV and with
this, ClamAV didn't work anymore, so I always need to restore my own
Permissions to get ClamAV working again.
This also looks like your mistake, do you download the files manually?
You should let freshclam to download them and signal clamd to reload.
I use Debian on which Ubuntu is based on and it works properly.
I asssume it works properly on Ubuntu as well...

Then I just have to live with restrictions, it doesn't seem to be
changeable on easy way.
You still can try other linux distribution, but what I've said still
applies.
And you also didn't explain which restrictions on clamav you don't like.
