| Just a ping to see what you want to do with this.  I feel that it is not

| constrained system, this option can be added manually, and it will be
| preserved over upgrade.  I feel that the option is satisfactorily
| explained in the man page as well.

Yes, the behavior of 0 is explained there. The confusion arose, when
it was explicitly set. I waould have expected the manual page's
default value. Thus the question: "Why the defaul configuration uses
0?"

I took a quick look at clamav-daemon.postinst lines:

    213     echo "#Automatically Generated by clamav-daemon postinst" > 
$DEBCONFFILE
    214     echo "#To reconfigure clamd run #dpkg-reconfigure clamav-daemon" >> 
$DEBC

Would it be possible to one more comment line to this section to
shortly refer to the reasons the value is 0. That would really help
from my part in this issue.

Other than that, I do not have expertise on how the upgrade works, or
how the confguration files are managed, so I'm unable to make better
suggestions.
