0. Please rename clamd-wrapper init script to clamd (same as upstream rpms and same as other servers, e.g. httpd is named httpd not httpd-wrapper). 1. Installing clamav-server clamav-update with yum doesn't also pull clamav. Is this intended? 2. After installing those: # service clamd-wrapper start clamd-wrapper: unrecognized service Please run chkconfig --add in POST-install script (and --del on PRE-uninstall) 3. freshclam requires manual changes to enable it. I know it's because of not setting same hour everywhere in order to spread the load. Upstream clamav rpms enable freshclam as a daemon, can't the same setup be used? If not, then generate some random hour - minute on install to put in cron file, so it works out of the box. Thanks!

A common clamd daemon is not possible and such a daemon is not useful in most cases. E.g. see http://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=268#c8 for explainations. | 1. Installing clamav-server clamav-update with yum doesn't also pull | clamav. Is this intended? Yes; client part is not needed for the server. | 2. After installing those: | # service clamd-wrapper start | clamd-wrapper: unrecognized service | | Please run chkconfig --add in POST-install script (and --del on | PRE-uninstall) Not possible; clamd-wrapper is a wrapper but not a service. | 3. freshclam requires manual changes to enable it.

For details, please see http://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1715#c43 point 4. For more details about the clamav packaging please read the tickets at the fedora.us bugzilla. They explain all of the issues above. http://bugzilla.fedora.us/buglist.cgi?field0-0-0=short_desc&type0-0-0=substring&value0-0-0=clamav%20
