The update of clamav released as DLA 1953-1 led to permission issues on /var/run/clamav. This caused several users to experience issues restarting the clamav daemon. This regression is caused by a mistakenly backported patch from the stretch package, upon which this update was based.
For Debian 8
Jessie
, this problem has been fixed in version 0.101.4+dfsg-0+deb8u2.We recommend that you upgrade your clamav packages.
