I can reproduce this only by deleting /etc/clamav/clamd.conf manually. This configuration file is not in the clamav package, and removing clamav does not remove it. The file gets created on-the-fly after installing packages.
Are you sure you didn't delete the config file by accident, then tried to uninstall the packages? This way that error message appears indeed. But it gives a solution too. Just copy over the example clamd.conf, and all is well. -- unable to remove --purge because initscript expect configfile to exist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
