[Bug 793314] Re: package clamav-daemon 0.96.5 dfsg-1ubuntu1.10.04.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Scott Moser]

It would appear from the dpkg terminal log that you do not have a Clamav
config, perhaps you removed it?

If you're sure that you did not remove /etc/clamav/clamd.conf, then this
likely is a bug, and please say so and change the state to 'new'.
Otherise, I think the error is giving you fairly good advice.  (run
dpkg-reconfigure clamav-daemon, and then contineu the upgrade).
