I'm in the midst of converting legacy sysv init scripts that use
/usr/share/clamav/clamd-wrapper to native systemd units and I have noticed
some discrepancy in their packaging which indicate a lack of guidelines.
Granted that I'm no clamav expert but from what I can tell the packages that
use the clamd-wrapper should all be doing the same thing and the package
that does it most right from my point of view is exim-clamd and the worst
one being dansguardian ( which seems to be yet another package we ship that
is neglected by it's maintainer(s) I come across in the migration process).
Clamav has been a special set of packages with a convoluted history
from when it was a package in Fedora Extras. It has many ideas that
were experimented with back then but not used later. It is probably a
package that needs a serious rethunk. How it is started and packaged
has effects on other packages so it is a Gordian knot.
