[Bug 363453] Re: clamav-milter requires clamav-daemon in jaunty (?)

[Matt LaPlante]

I don't use update-manager, but from what I understand it's a graphical
applications which may be of little benefit to those of us running
servers with no window manager.

I can confirm what you said about this only affecting upgrade installs,
which is good news at least.  The bad news is I also ran into another
issue (actually 2) with the latest update this afternoon.

First, the upgrade process (and even a --purge) doesn't do anything
about old instances of /etc/default/clamav-milter.  This is problematic
because the init script apparently still reads this file for OPTIONS.
Unfortunately, a number of the old options are now invalid, so leaving
this file intact breaks the startup if you've declared any commandline
options.

It also seems the in-box init script is somewhat broken regarding the
new milter as well:

Setting up clamav-milter (0.95.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1) ...
 * Starting Sendmail milter plugin for ClamAV clamav-milter                                                                                                                             /usr/sbin/clamav-milter: unrecognized option `--pidfile'
ERROR: Unknown option passed
ERROR: Can't parse command line options

This I can confirm from a fresh install (no /etc/defaults at all), so
it's not an upgrade issue.
