[Bug 378044] [NEW] clamav-daemon does not start anymore after system update - "unknown option"

[Rubeosis]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mailscanner

I am working with Linux server 2.6.24-23-server #1 SMP Wed Apr 1
22:14:30 UTC 2009 x86_64

Description:	Ubuntu 8.04.2
Release:	8.04

After a system update via apt-get update/upgrade the mailscanner does
not start anymore. The mailq ist full of messages that cannot be
delivered anymore due to the following reason:

host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 451 4.5.0 Error in processing,
id=07338-19, virus_scan FAILED: virus_scan: ALL VIRUS SCANNERS FAILED:
ClamAV-clamd av-scanner FAILED: CODE(0x604e60) Too many retries to talk
to /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl (Can't connect to UNIX socket
/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl: No such file or directory) at (eval 86) line
310. at (eval 86) line 511. (in reply to end of DATA command)

/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon restart crashes:
ERROR: Parse error at line 44: Unknown option ScanPartialMessages.
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamav/clamd.conf

Analogously with 
ScanPartialMessages false
HeuristicScanPrecedence false
StructuredDataDetection false

After commenting out that options the system works again.

In my opinion this is a very critical bug!!!!
