No problem. > Whatis the output of `id clamav` on the affected system? It appears > that you have the user but not the group, which is a "should not happen" > kind of situation. At this time I have neither the user nor the group, but when this error happened I had only the user. I'm afraid I can't explain why. All I know is: - This was a long-standing sid chroot. - It never had clamav installed before (that I can recall). - I did "sudo apt-get install clamav", which produced this error. Which package is responsible for adding the group? -- Robert Millan <GPLv2> I know my rights; I want my phone call! <DRM> What use is a phone call, if you are unable to speak?
