Cannot find this in bugzilla. The /etc/sysconfig script disables the automatic
update on purpose (to prevent unauthorized network access) and warns the
user about that default. What is wrong with that?
- freshclam should not mail
"root,postmaster,webmaster,clamav" on any
output.
Is this in bugzilla?
It also mails warnings and errors.
- freshclam should be set to use your local country mirror for
updates.

- The subpackages should be reduced and named in a way that an end
user
could possibly know what they need to install for the functionality
they are looking for. For example, the upstream docs and every other
package talks about the 'freshclam' update program, it's not easy to
know that in fedora thats in the 'clamav-update' package.
Just a %doc issue so far, IMO. Unless it is ruled that clamav
must be in a single package.
- The useless 'sysv' subpackages should be folded into the
other
subpackages until such a time as fedora stops using sysvinit by
default.

- clamscan looks for a /etc/clamd.conf file for config options,
which
is not in that place. If it was it wouldn't work because it needs a
line commented before it's a valid config file.
- The package could not remove the clamav user on removal.
I'm sure I could look around for more issues.

I suppose someone could... thats not my issue however. My issues are in
the clamav package itself, not just not having a system wide clamd.
The list is interesting, but it adds more than what I thought has been the
primary (only?) issue with the Fedora clamav packages.
