Comment 2 for bug 310737

I'm not quite sure which one of these packages is responsible, klamav or clamav-freshclam, but I can say that this is still a problem.

When updates via klamav fails, the same error message output appears in /var/log/messages

Mar 3 20:35:54 myserver1 kernel: [ 4954.501931] type=1503 audit(1236080154.830:9): operation="inode_permission" requested_mask="::r" denied_mask="::r" fsuid=0 name="/tmp/freshclam.conf" pid=13096 profile="/usr/bin/freshclam"

Addin /tmp/** rw, does fix the problem.

Here's the package status on my Ubuntu 8.10 box.

$ dpkg -l | egrep 'klam|clam'
ii clamav 0.94.dfsg.2-1ubuntu0.1 anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line i
ii clamav-base 0.94.dfsg.2-1ubuntu0.1 anti-virus utility for Unix - base package
ii clamav-freshclam 0.94.dfsg.2-1ubuntu0.1 anti-virus utility for Unix - virus database
ii klamav 0.44-3ubuntu2 KDE frontend for ClamAV
ii libclamav5 0.94.dfsg.2-1ubuntu0.1 anti-virus utility for Unix - library

Anyway, I wonder which version of klamav package "One of the post-release uploads" really means.
