Description of problem: The new version clamav-unofficial-sigs installs a cron job to actually do the update. (It seems to install a systemd timer unit as well, which is odd but doesn't cause the immediate problem.) /etc/clamav-unofficial-sigs/os.conf includes the following line: clamd_restart_opt="systemctl restart clamd@scan" This results in semi-hourly emails from cron: Subject: Cron <root@mx1> [ -x /usr/sbin/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh ] && /usr/bin/bash /usr/sbin/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh > /dev/null Job for clamd failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status clamd" and "journalctl -xe" for details. I don't and have never used the clamd@scan service; clamav is installed on these machines to scan incoming email and an instance for that is started via the clamd.exim service. Using "systemctl try-restart clamd@scan" may be more useful; at least it shouldn't error out if the clamd@scan service isn't already running. I have set things up that way now and so far it's at least not spamming me. Also, looking at the systemd timer that's installed.... I think it would just automatically activate if the clamd@scan service is enabled. That seems like it would actually get run twice in that case, which seems odd and probably unwanted. I would suggest either dropping that timer unit or dropping the cron job and changing the WantedBy= line to WantedBy=timers.target so that the thing runs independently of clamd@scan.
+1 for me Didier, can you please fix this as you suggested for me by email? And also can you please make an update with yara rules disabled. And also thid logrotate thing. If you wish, I can fill bug reports for all of them. Thank you.
